Timeout node flow

If no timeout is configured, the node runs until it completes or the workflow-level timeout is reached. If the timeout is reached, the node fails.

Global timeout vs. local timeout

A timeout for the entire workflow is defined when creating the workflow. When both a node timeout and a workflow-level timeout are defined, the shortest timeout value is applied.

Field	Description
Timeout	Maximum allowed execution time for the node, in seconds, minutes, or hours. The minimum value is 30 seconds.
Retry attempts	Number of times the node is retried on failure.
Retry delay	Time to wait between retry attempts, in seconds, minutes, or hours. Always set it when retry attempts are configured: without a delay, retries are effectively never scheduled.
Backoff	Coefficient applied to the retry delay to increase the wait time after each failed attempt.

Retries and timeouts

If the node includes retry settings, the timeout applies to each attempt, not to the total duration of all attempts.
