Handling timeout errors in Zapier when running big queries in Chat GPT 5

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!
