finally Element

A child element of the <try> step that specifies the steps to execute regardless of whether a typical error occurred earlier within the <try> or <catch> steps; typical errors comprise plan abort or plan timeout, in which case the steps of the <finally> element are skipped altogether. It may contain any number of steps that are permitted within the scope of the block containing the <try> step.

The <finally> element is used primarily to specify steps to clean up and release resources, when the cleanup should be triggered regardless of other typical error conditions.
