Extending Timeout for Clay API Responses

Sławom P. · 2025-02-10 08:52:13.247778+00

Hey ! I use clay with API that requires about 180 seconds to respond as it is doing some analysis. I get timeouts. Is there any way to ask clay to wait longer for resopnse?

You can adjust the rate limit settings in the HTTP API integration to accommodate longer response times. In the HTTP API settings: 1. Go to the "Define rate limit" section 2. Set your "Request Limit" to specify the number of allowed requests 3. In the "Duration (in ms)" field, enter up to 900,000 milliseconds (900 seconds) as the time windowNote that this setting controls how many requests can be sent within your specified timeframe, helping to manage API rate limits and longer response times.

We're sorry to hear you're experiencing issues with saving your HTTP API integration settings. This isn't expected behavior, and we'd like to help you resolve it.The HTTP API integration in Clay should save your selections when you hit the save button. If it's not retaining your settings, there might be a technical issue or a problem with your browser cache.To troubleshoot this, you could try: 1. Refreshing the page after saving 2. Clearing your browser cache and cookies 3. Using a different browserIf the problem persists, we'd like to investigate further. Could you provide more details about which specific selections are being forgotten? For example, is it the HTTP method, endpoint, or other parameters?

Based on the available information, I cannot definitively identify why your HTTP API settings aren't saving, as this appears to be unexpected behavior. The HTTP API integration should properly save your configuration when you click the save button.To help resolve this issue, you can try these troubleshooting steps: 1. Make sure you've completed all required fields, especially: • HTTP method selection • API endpoint URL • Any mandatory parameters for your specific API 2. Try using one of our pre-made templates as a starting point by clicking the "Browse Templates" button at the top of the integration window.If the issue persists after trying these steps, you'll need to ask for human support to investigate this technical issue further, as this isn't the expected behavior of the integration.

It did save my setting but it is still timing out at 900,000 ms despite response arriving in 300,000ms
