Can someone explain how the “iteration timeout” works with a workflow loop block? The default value is 10000ms. My “loop runner” is another Retool Workflow. The called workflow exceeds 10 seconds, 100% of the time. The only time I’m seeing a timeout, is when the called workflow exceeds 3 minutes, which is a retool limit. Why is this?
To test this in isolation, I created the following 2 workflows.
I recommend reviewing those resources first, as they answer many common questions about workflow execution, timeouts, and best practices.
If you still have questions after going through them, or if your use case is slightly different, feel free to share more details here. I'd be happy to help troubleshoot and find the best solution.
I appreciate you spending time on your reply, I’m just not sure how to apply any of it to my scenario. Most, if not all, of what you’re referencing, is talking about why things timeout and best practices to get “get around” them. My scenario is the opposite – I want a timeout, and it’s not happening, and I don’t know why.
