Hi there,

I’m currently building a new Integration in Zapier but i need to increase the request timeout for a couple of the endpoints. I cannot find how to change it.

Kind regards,

I see that the max limit is 30 sec, which is too small for my app to work. Please let me know what I can do to build my integration

Hi ​@Browserflow,

 

I understand you're looking to increase the request timeout for some of your endpoints in your integration. However, it's important to note that as of the current Zapier platform settings, the timeout for a single HTTP request is set to 30 seconds, and unfortunately, it can't be changed or extended.

 

This ensures that Zaps run efficiently and don't get caught waiting for slow responses. If your API's response time is close to or exceeds this limit, you might encounter issues with your Zaps timing out. As a workaround, consider optimizing your API's performance to ensure it responds within this time frame. If the problem is a large data payload, consider paginating the response or using Webhooks to handle the data asynchronously.

 

I understand this might not be the ideal answer you hoped for, but I hope it clarifies. Please let us know if you have any other questions or need further assistance.
