Timeouts

TimeoutsDefinition

In addition to any timeouts applied on a state-by-state basis, every workflow has two global timeouts that begin ticking from the moment the workflow starts. This is where you can configure these timeouts differently to their defaults.

Parameter Description Type Required
interrupt An ISO8601 duration string. Sets the time to wait before throwing a catchable direktiv.cancels.timeout.soft error. Consider this a soft timeout. string no
kill An ISO8601 duration string. Sets the time to wait before throwing an uncatchable direktiv.cancels.timeout.hard error. This is a hard timeout. string no
