Power Automate Timeout Error

Posted on by Alessandro_IBSA

I have this error message in a flow that lasts 2.42 minutes. It moves more than 150 records from one list to another in SharePoint.

Could someone suggest me how to solve this problem or how to increase the alloted timeout value ?

The execution of template action 'Respond_to_a_PowerApp_or_flow_-_True' is failed: the client application timed out waiting for a response from service. This means that workflow took longer to respond than the alloted timeout value. The connection maintained between the client application and service will be closed and client application will get an HTTP status code 504 Gateway Timeout.

Thank you.

Hi @Alessandro_IBSA ，
Please try this possibility, concurrency can allow fifty records to be executed at the same time, which will greatly reduce the flow execution time.

Hi,

I have a problem with Gateway timeout and gateway on endpoint http:blabla.. unreachable. The problem started approximately one month ago. Before that everything was working.
Robot is inserting invoices and invoices lines in Business Central. Information about invoices are received through Excel. Robot should insert about 100 invoices and create about 10 lines for every invoice.
But, recently, when executing, it fails on creating some invoice or some invoice lines with error "Gateway timeout" or "Gateway unreachable".
I have tried to restructure flow several times, to set timeout on activities that creates invoices and invoice lines (PT20M) but it did not help. I have also tried to put delay after every invoice creation (Delay 1 minute), but flow still fails on some invoices. For example, he enters 10 invoices, that 11 fails, that 12 is ok, and so on.
Can you please give me some advice how to solve this, because this process is crucial for our client business.
This "InternalServerError" when you show raw output gives you: " Gateway on endpoint 'sb://wabi-west-europe-e-primary-relay24.servicebus.windows.net/{id}/' is unreachable."

Thank you in advance.

I know this is old but I wanted to share a solution so that others searching might find it.

If the actual return isn't something passing a needed value, just put the Respond to PowerApp or Flow connector up higher in the flow before the time consuming step.
