## Accessors
#### activeManager\_
`Protected` **activeManager\_**: [object Object]
## Methods
#### atomicPhase\_
`Protected **atomicPhase_**(work, isolationOrErrorHandler?, maybeErrorHandlerOrDontFail?): Promise<TResult>`
Wraps some work within a transactional block. If the service already has
a transaction manager attached this will be reused, otherwise a new
transaction manager is created.
##### Type Parameters
##### Parameters
Promise<TResult>",
"description": "the transactional work to be done",
"optional": false,
"defaultValue": "",
"expandable": false,
"children": []
},
{
"name": "isolationOrErrorHandler",
"type": "`IsolationLevel` \\| (`error`: `TError`) => Promise<void \\| TResult>",
"description": "the isolation level to be used for the work.",
"optional": true,
"defaultValue": "",
"expandable": false,
"children": []
},
{
"name": "maybeErrorHandlerOrDontFail",
"type": "(`error`: `TError`) => Promise<void \\| TResult>",
"description": "Potential error handler",
"optional": true,
"defaultValue": "",
"expandable": false,
"children": []
}
]} />
##### Returns
Promise<TResult>
___
#### create
`**create**(payload): Promise<[IdempotencyKey](IdempotencyKey.mdx)>`
Creates an idempotency key for a request.
If no idempotency key is provided in request, we will create a unique
identifier.
##### Parameters
##### Returns
Promise<[IdempotencyKey](IdempotencyKey.mdx)>
___
#### initializeRequest
`**initializeRequest**(headerKey, reqMethod, reqParams, reqPath): Promise<[IdempotencyKey](IdempotencyKey.mdx)>`
Execute the initial steps in a idempotent request.
##### Parameters
`",
"description": "params of request",
"optional": false,
"defaultValue": "",
"expandable": false,
"children": []
},
{
"name": "reqPath",
"type": "`string`",
"description": "path of request",
"optional": false,
"defaultValue": "",
"expandable": false,
"children": []
}
]} />
##### Returns
Promise<[IdempotencyKey](IdempotencyKey.mdx)>
___
#### lock
`**lock**(idempotencyKey): Promise<[IdempotencyKey](IdempotencyKey.mdx)>`
Locks an idempotency.
##### Parameters
##### Returns
Promise<[IdempotencyKey](IdempotencyKey.mdx)>
___
#### retrieve
`**retrieve**(idempotencyKeyOrSelector): Promise<[IdempotencyKey](IdempotencyKey.mdx)>`
Retrieves an idempotency key
##### Parameters
##### Returns
Promise<[IdempotencyKey](IdempotencyKey.mdx)>
___
#### shouldRetryTransaction\_
`Protected **shouldRetryTransaction_**(err): boolean`
##### Parameters
` \\| ``{ code: string }``",

___
#### update
`**update**(idempotencyKey, update): Promise<[IdempotencyKey](IdempotencyKey.mdx)>`
Locks an idempotency.
##### Parameters
##### Returns
Promise<[IdempotencyKey](IdempotencyKey.mdx)>
___
#### withTransaction
`**withTransaction**(transactionManager?): [IdempotencyKeyService](IdempotencyKeyService.mdx)`
##### Parameters
##### Returns
[IdempotencyKeyService](IdempotencyKeyService.mdx)
___
#### workStage
`**workStage**(idempotencyKey, callback): Promise<[IdempotencyKey](IdempotencyKey.mdx)>`
Performs an atomic work stage.
An atomic work stage contains some related functionality, that needs to be
transactionally executed in isolation. An idempotent request will
always consist of 2 or more of these phases. The required phases are
"started" and "finished".
##### Parameters
Promise<[IdempotencyCallbackResult](../types/IdempotencyCallbackResult.mdx)>",
"description": "functionality to execute within the phase",
"optional": false,
"defaultValue": "",
"expandable": false,
"children": []
}
]} />
##### Returns
Promise<[IdempotencyKey](IdempotencyKey.mdx)>
