Hi there,

Here is a great article on how timeouts work:

https://www.o365dude.com/2018/06/02/timeout-flow-approvals/

And here is the wiki for the format:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601

So based on that I think you want PT30S

Cheers,

Rhia

@Githendra23 ISO 8601 terminology-

P is the duration designator (referred to as "period"), and is always placed at the beginning of the duration.

Y is the year designator that follows the value for the number of years.

M is the month designator that follows the value for the number of months.

W is the week designator that follows the value for the number of weeks.

D is the day designator that follows the value for the number of days.

T is the time designator that precedes the time components.

H is the hour designator that follows the value for the number of hours.

M is the minute designator that follows the value for the number of minutes.

S is the second designator that follows the value for the number of seconds.

So for 30 seconds use PT30S in the box

@Rhiassuring Great. Terminology itself is explaining for Time component.

T is the time designator that precedes the time components.
