I created a workflow which looks at a Smartsheet and loops through all the rows to create a feature in a 3rd party software using an HTTP request. Typically, the run only last for 1-2 minutes, however, I have recently been getting some that last for 1-4 hrs., often times stopping on setting variables. I was wondering if there are ways to stop the flow when they go beyond a certain time frame or maybe what is causing the slow downs. I am below the actions/day allotted for my license and I have used "terminate" to run when the flow fails randomly. But any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
You could add a parallel action of Delay.
Set it to the amount of time after which you would want the flow to stop and a terminate action.
Add terminate action at the end of your original flow path.
In the second pic changed the delay to 10 seconds and added a delay of 30 seconds before the list items action to show that if the main part of the flow isn't complete before the delay to failure terminate it will show as a fail.
You could add an email notification or teams message before the Terminate failure to alert you that your flow has timed out.
