Time Out Option when workflow has been running for too long

Question

Hi All,

Recently we have been experiencing some issues with downloading APi informations through the Alteryx API.

This time was the endpoint GET /admin/v1/users  not working correctly. The Workflow retrieveing data from the API is scheduled to run once a day and this time it has been running for 3 hours long until we found out about the issue and we manually stopped the RUN.

As you can imagine, the whole Queue of scheduled WFs was delayed and we received several complaints from our clients .

Question: Is there a way to stop a scheduled WF from running forever if it doesn't end up with an Error or Success. Something like "if WF is not over in 60 minute, stop RUN"

Thank you

hi @Davide11   do you have the Alteryx Server? if so timeout can be managed in the alteryx system settings on the Worker> General page

If this is a solution to your problem kindly mark it as a solution so that other users can find the answer quickly

Thanks
