Hey there! 👋
Timeout errors with big ChatGPT queries can definitely occur! Here's what I'd recommend as most timeouts are temporary.
- Check OpenAI's status page to see if they're having issues.
- Replay your failed runs - Go to your Zap History, filter for "Stopped/Errored" runs, and hit Replay Zap run.
Other options:
Break up those big queries! Instead of sending one large prompt, try:
- Splitting it into smaller, focused chunks
- Using multiple Zap AI Conversation/prompt steps to process incrementally, creating a series of smaller prompts that build on each other and link them together with a conversation key.
- Use Formatter by Zapier's "Text > Split Text for AI Prompts" action - This is specifically designed to intelligently split large text into smaller chunks that stay within token limits while preserving context
Optimize your prompts:
- Cut out unnecessary fluff and examples
- Be more specific about what you need
- Focus on the essential info only
The Formatter "Split Text for AI Prompts" action is particularly helpful here since it's built specifically for this use case!
Hope this helps!
