REST API request timeout inconsistent between Workflows and Apps - potential bug?

I have an endpoint on my API that unfortunately takes approximately 2-3 minutes to process & return data.

Having tried out the new Workflows functionality, I noticed that REST API requests have a timeout setting:

But the Retool Cloud GUI for REST API requests only allows you to have a max timeout of 2 minutes.

Is this intentional? Both products appear to be cloud based so I'm not sure they should be different.

Not fully sure of the exact mechanics, but I believe this is intentional! You can extend the timeout a bit with an on premise deployment as well.
