Hi. I have a Firecrawl scraping action as above. It scrapes articles. 

An article might be short or long, but they both work when I scrape them in the Firecrawl playground on the Firecrawl website.

But for longer articles, when scraping in Zapier, the action times out and the zap hits an error. 

For live zaps, is there a timeout for actions like this? Or is there a timeout settingin the Firecrawl action block that needs to be set? I couldn’t see an option to adjust the timeout duration in the action itself.

 

Hi @Team Media 

Help links for understanding Zap step timeouts:

Action runs in a Zap

Constraint

Each time a Zap step runs, the action/search’s perform method must finish processing in 30 seconds.
If the API request cannot consistently be finished within 30 seconds - for example, file format conversion, an error will show.
