Hi community,

Do you know any details about this feature?

I'm using a PowerShell command to run a Python script. Our concern is that, somehow, the Python script blocks somewhere and the PowerShell action doesn't finish. We are running PAD in Unattended mode, therefore we need to make sure that the desktop flow execution is cancelled/timed-out after X hours.

Any ideas?

Thanks

OMG I went directly to the advanced settings and somehow missed that toggle 😅

Thanks @Agnius

Re: Run PowerShell Script - Timeout

In order for the script to time out, you need to enable the "Fail after timeout" toggle:

And then set the timeout value in seconds in the field that appears after you enable it.
