Adds components/string_web_access with the app file, package.json, a README that renders on the app's marketplace page, and five actions: Fetch URL, Extract Data From URL, Send Request To URL, Search Web and Map Site URLs. Map Site URLs takes a required Budget (USD) and runs the quote, approve, poll and results lifecycle inside that cap, so a workflow cannot approve an open-ended crawl. Every action starts at version 0.0.1 and carries the annotations the registry guidelines ask for.

In `@components/string_web_access/actions/fetch-url/fetch-url.mjs`:
- Line 7: Add the required top-level ai metadata with the optimized value next
to version in every affected action:
components/string_web_access/actions/fetch-url/fetch-url.mjs line 7,
extract-data/extract-data.mjs line 7, search-web/search-web.mjs line 7,
send-request/send-request.mjs line 7, and map-site-urls/map-site-urls.mjs line
15. Ensure each action declares this property consistently.
In `@components/string_web_access/actions/map-site-urls/map-site-urls.mjs`:
- Line 19: Update the action metadata for the billed crawl in map-site-urls so
readOnlyHint is false, reflecting that the action submits and approves a crawl
and initiates billable work.
- Around line 72-74: Move the this-free sleep helper from the component methods
into common/utils.mjs, export it there, and import and reuse that shared utility
wherever map-site-urls needs sleep. Remove the local sleep method from the
affected component.
- Around line 126-133: Update the sitemap retrieval flow around
app.getSitemapUrls to paginate through all results: use the supported maximum
page size, advance offset by the number of URLs returned, and continue requests
until the accumulated URL count reaches results.total. Preserve the existing
jobId and $ parameters while aggregating every page for downstream processing.
- Line 103: Update the flow around getSitemapStatus() and getSitemapUrls() to
retain the complete latest status response when status is "failed", and surface
its errorMessage instead of proceeding as a successful URL-collection case.
Preserve the existing URL collection behavior for non-failed statuses.
- Around line 112-123: The Map Site URLs flow must make timed-out crawls
completable: either continue polling and collect URLs in the existing action
until status reaches a TERMINAL_STATUSES entry, or add an action that accepts
the returned jobId and exposes status/results retrieval. Ensure the timeout
response no longer leaves users with only an unusable job ID and empty urls.
In `@components/string_web_access/actions/send-request/send-request.mjs`:
- Line 6: Update the component description near the action metadata to describe
sending a write request with a body, removing the explicit POST, PUT, PATCH
methods and endpoint URL. Keep the supported HTTP methods documented only in the
method prop description.
In `@components/string_web_access/string_web_access.app.mjs`:
- Line 103: Rename the public String Web app method search to searchWeb, and
update the Search Web action call to invoke searchWeb while preserving its
existing behavior and options handling.

Every action now declares ai: "optimized", and Map Site URLs is no longer marked read-only, since approving a crawl starts billed work. Map Site URLs reports a failed crawl's errorMessage instead of reading URLs from it as if it had succeeded, and collects every results page (5,000 at a time, up to the reported total) rather than only the first 1,000 URLs. A crawl that outlives maxWaitSeconds can now be finished: the new Get Mapped Site URLs action takes the returned jobId and returns the job's progress, or every discovered URL once the crawl has ended. Also moves sleep() to common/utils.mjs, renames the app's search() method to searchWeb(), drops the HTTP methods from the Send Request To URL description, and adds example values to the prop descriptions.
Rewords the README overview, one use case line, one troubleshooting entry and the Country Code prop description.
The status endpoint reports an interrupted approval as a 409 with status partial_state. The platform's axios threw on that response, so the re-approve branch in Map Site URLs never ran and the action failed instead. The status call now accepts a 409 as a response. Get Mapped Site URLs approves the job again in the same case, so it is no longer marked read-only.

Dylan Sather (Pipedream) : thanks. I do see that you’re making a large number of HTTP requests in your workflow, one at a time, and that is expected to take some time. I’d recommend two things:
1. In your workflow’s Settings, increase the execution timeout to 300 seconds (the max for a given invocation)
2. Can you increase the number of items you fetch in a single page, or otherwise parallelize the HTTP requests you make inside of that for loop, so that you can reduce the total number of HTTP requests?

# Setting a Timeout for HTTP Requests
Help
fled (Fled) April 25, 2023, 3:39pm 1
Hello fellow Pipedream users,
I have a question about making HTTP requests in Pipedream and setting a specific timeout for the server to respond. I’m working with an API that takes a while to return a response, but the default timeout in Pipedream is too short and ends up cutting off the request before the response is received.
Is there a way to specify a longer timeout for the HTTP request in Pipedream, so that I can give the server enough time to respond? For example, if I know that the API response may take up to a minute, but the default timeout in Pipedream seems to be only a few seconds, how can I extend the timeout to accommodate for the longer response time?
Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance.

The default timeout for HTTP requests sent with `$.send.http()` is 5 seconds. This time includes DNS resolution, connecting to the host, writing the request body, server processing, and reading the response body. If your request exceeds this 5-second limit, you’ll receive a timeout error. If you’re experiencing timeouts frequently, you might need to optimize the request or the server processing time to ensure it completes within the allowed time frame.
user-1 (User 1) November 2, 2023, 6:48pm 3
It’s an inbound http call
user-1 (User 1) November 2, 2023, 6:48pm 4
The presentation of the timeout error is actually a bit misleading. Even though it looks like the trigger timed out, we don’t know for sure where in the workflow the timeout actually happened.
user-1 (User 1) November 2, 2023, 6:48pm 5
Are you calling any 3rd party APIs in the workflow? That’s often where we see timeouts coming from, but you can raise the timeout threshold in the workflow settings.

# Does the Time Set in Workflow_Delay Count Towards the Total Workflow Time Limit?
This topic was automatically generated from Slack. You can find the original thread here.
Is the time set in workflow_delay included in the time limit for the entire workflow?
user-1 (User 1) November 16, 2023, 8:57pm 2
No, the time set in `$.flow.delay` for a workflow is not included in the time limit for the entire workflow. The length of time a workflow is delayed does not impact your credit usage or the workflow’s execution time limit. However, using `$.flow.delay` in a workflow will incur two credits. One credit is used to initially start the workflow, then the second credit is used when the workflow resumes after its pause period has ended. For more details, please visit: Delaying a workflow
Why does a TIMEOUT error appear after using workflow_delay?
user-1 (User 1) November 16, 2023, 8:57pm 4
A TIMEOUT error typically occurs when a workflow exceeds its maximum execution time. For free tier users, the maximum execution time for a workflow is 30 seconds. If you’re using `$.flow.delay` to pause your workflow, it’s important to note that this doesn’t extend the workflow’s execution time limit. If your workflow is timing out after using `$.flow.delay`, it’s possible that other parts of your workflow are taking too long to execute. You might need to optimize your workflow or consider upgrading your Pipedream plan for a longer execution time limit. If you continue to experience issues, please visit https://pipedream.com/support for more support options.
How run puppeteer script once per day at random times, if I’m using $.flow.delay to pause my workflow, but I can’t extend the workflow’s execution time limit by more than 300 seconds and the delay time is included in the workflow’s execution time limit?
user-1 (User 1) November 16, 2023, 8:57pm 7
To run a Puppeteer script once per day at random times, you can use a combination of the Scheduler trigger and `$.flow.delay` function. First, set up a Scheduler trigger to run your workflow once per day. Then, in the first step of your workflow, use `$.flow.delay` to pause your workflow for a random amount of time. This will ensure your Puppeteer script runs at a random time within the day. Here’s an example of how you can set this up: ` export default defineComponent({ async run({ steps, $ }) { // Generate a random delay time in milliseconds (up to 24 hours) const delayTime = Math.floor(Math.random() ** 24 ** 60 ** 60 ** 1000); // Delay the workflow for the random amount of time $.flow.delay(delayTime); // Your Puppeteer script goes here // ... }, }); ` Remember that the delay time set in `$.flow.delay` is not included in the workflow’s execution time limit, so it won’t cause your workflow to timeout. However, the actual execution time of your Puppeteer script should not exceed the workflow’s execution time limit.

Can the time set in the add step function “workflow_delay” exceed the time limit in the workflow timeout?
user-1 (User 1) November 16, 2023, 8:57pm 14
No, the time set in the “workflow_delay” step cannot exceed the workflow’s execution time limit. The maximum execution time for a workflow is determined by your Pipedream plan. For example, on the free tier, the maximum execution time for a workflow is 30 seconds. If you need to delay your workflow for a longer period, you can use the “Delay Workflow” action, which allows you to delay your workflow for …[truncated]</excerpt>

Dylan Sather (Pipedream) : thanks. I do see that you’re making a large number of HTTP requests in your workflow, one at a time, and that is expected to take some time. I’d recommend two things:
1. In your workflow’s Settings, increase the execution timeout to 300 seconds (the max for a given invocation)
2. Can you increase the number of items you fetch in a single page, or otherwise parallelize the HTTP requests you make inside of that for loop, so that you can reduce the total number of HTTP requests?

Hi @zvictor
First off, welcome to the Pipedream community. Happy to have you!
That’s a really neat way to improve the looping control, thanks for sharing.
Another tool to use in Pipedream is the `$.send.http` interface. Unlike a normal HTTP request in code, the `$.send.http` will queue the HTTP call after the workflow is finished.
That way you can send a batch of HTTP calls and not affect the workflow’s execution timeout.
Image pipedream.com
### HTTP
Pipedream Documentation - Connect APIs, remarkably fast
I suggest switching your `axios` usage with a destination HTTP call instead, because you’re not using the response of the HTTP call in this case.
I like the idea of processing in the background, which is possible in the browser, but unfortunately that won’t work in Pipedream or Node.js. The workflow’s execution is terminated once the functions are finished await’ing.
You’ll need to return a Promise, or await all asynchronous operations within Node.js code steps. </excerpt>

<location>https://pipedream.com/community/t/how-to-execute-a-line-on-timeout-in-the-pipedream-workflow/10716</location>
<excerpt>citeturn0search4 [wordlim: 200] Published: 2.5 years ago; Crawled: 3 months ago; This code checks if the current workflow is about to time out and triggers another workflow using the Pipedream API: ` import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform" export default defineComponent({ async run({ steps, $ }) { // Replace `workflow_id` with the ID of the workflow you want to trigger const targetWorkflowId = "your_target_workflow_id"; // Replace `YOUR_API_KEY` with your Pipedream API key const apiKey = "YOUR_API_KEY"; try { // Your workflow logic here // ... } catch (error) { if (error.message.includes("Timeout")) { // Trigger another workflow if a timeout error occurs await axios($, { method: "POST", url: `https://api.pipedream.com/v1/workflows/${targetWorkflowId}/dispatches`, headers: { "Authorization": `Bearer ${apiKey}`, "Content-Type": "application/json", }, data: { // Optional: Include any data you want to pass to the triggered workflow }, }); } else { // Handle other errors console.error("An error occurred:", error); } } }, }) ` Please note: - Replace `your_target_workflow_id` with the ID of the workflow you want to trigger. - Replace `YOUR_API_KEY` with your actual Pipedream API key. - This example uses a try-catch block to catch any errors that occur during the execution of your workflow.
2. Trigger a Secondary Workflow: When a timeout is detected, trigger a secondary workflow. This can be done using Pipedream’s built-in mechanisms like webhook triggers or by using external tools that call a Pipedream workflow’s HTTP endpoint. 3. Send a Line Message in the Secondary Workflow: In the secondary workflow, use the Line integration to send a notification about the timeout. Here’s an example component code that sends a message via Line: ` import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"; export default defineComponent({ props: { line: { type: "app", app: "line", }, }, async run({ steps, $ }) { const message = "A timeout occurred in the primary workflow."; // Customize your message return await axios($, { method: "POST", url: `https://notify-api.line.me/api/notify`, headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${this.line.$auth.oauth_access_token}`, }, data: `message=${encodeURIComponent(message)}`, }); }, }); ` Remember to replace `"A timeout occurred in the primary workflow."` with the specific message you want to send or any details about the timeout. This approach requires manual intervention or external monitoring to detect timeouts and trigger the secondary workflow. Directly handling timeouts within the same workflow that experiences the timeout is not feasible because the workflow execution would be stopped once the timeout limit is reached. For more details on handling timeouts and configuring workflow settings, you might find these resources helpful: - Troubleshooting Timeouts - Run and Monitor Production Systems on Pipedream For sending messages via Line,

Lixiv Maureal : Where are these syntaxes `$.export`, `$.respond` , `$.flow.exit` expected to be used?
I do not see them being used in any existing source/action, and `$` is not defined in workflow steps as well.
Can someone point out what is a valid use case for each and an example of where it is being used currently?
user-2 (User 2) October 24, 2021, 11:12pm 2
Dylan Sather (Pipedream) : We typically `return` data from actions in the Pipedream registry as a matter of style. That way the data is always exposed in the `$return_value` export (provides a consistent UX). In your own actions, though, `$.export` can be useful for returning 1) named exports (e.g. `steps.nodejs.name`) or 2) returning more than one value from a single.
The actions in the GitHub registry are primarily tied to third party APIs, and don’t use `$.respond` because users should choose the data issued in the HTTP response. So for most of these actions, `$.respond` is irrelevant. But again, you can use it in your own actions if you’re trying to abstract commonly-used code where you want to issue an HTTP response.
`$.flow.exit` is the equivalent of `$end` in code steps. Like with `$.respond`, there’s not a strong use case for using `$.flow.exit` in the registry actions, because it’s often not relevant when we’re talking to third party APIs. The primary case where we want to halt workflows is on fatal error (e.g. an action returns a 404 error), and `throw` already halts the execution of the workflow.
Eventually, you’ll be able to reference the `$` in code steps. We’re planning to ship that with our new workflow builder (entering beta soon). Once that’s released to the general public, we’ll expand the docs on the `$` to make it more clear how you can use it in normal code steps.

Hey team, I’m still pretty new to Pipedream but I’m loving it for the most part. My biggest issue is running into Timeout errors pretty regularly. I keep increasing the timeout limit with each error, but it doesn’t seem to reduce the chance of a timeout. Here’s an example of a recent Node step that timed out. Please let me know if you have any suggestions to prevent Timeout errors. If there are better ways to determine what caused the Timeout, that would be great too.
Note, I’ve obscured parts of the URL in the example for security. This code will not work if you try to run it.
`import axios from 'axios';
export default defineComponent({
async run({ steps, $ }) {

Do not use a 300-second default wait in workflows with the default timeout.
Pipedream reports a 30-second default workflow timeout and a 300-second maximum. This action approves the crawl before polling, so it can time out before returning jobId. Set the default wait below the workflow timeout with enough margin for the API calls, and export jobId immediately after approval.

await this.app.approveSitemap({
$,
jobId: quote.jobId,
});

Replace "Failed requests are not billed" with a statement that matches the provider's billing rules.
String's fetch documentation says that most failures are not billed. It also says that a target TLS/SSL failure can be billed when an upstream attempt has already done billable work. Those 502 responses include x-billed-request-type. The README states that no failures are billed, which is not correct.
