Hey i was trying to figure out how to add timeout limits per node like (30-45 seconds) or just after 1 full minute of inactivity just to hangup but in a workflow. So far i see how for assistants but not workflows. If anyone can help that would be great, thanks.

Workflows don’t support per-node timeouts directly, but you can work around this by using an API node with

timeoutSeconds

, or an Assistant node which supports inactivity timeouts, to handle inactivity and trigger a hang-up..

Assistant node being a tool to connect it to an assistant? and by API node what do you mean to do specifically?

Thank you for your continued patience and for being part of our journey. Warm regards, Vapi Team

No problem, my question wasn’t answered when you get a chance. Thanks

An Assistant node connects to an LLM assistant and supports silence timeouts like silenceTimeoutSeconds, while an API node like apiRequest lets you set timeoutSeconds and use its failure path to hang up if there’s no response..
