Set Timeout Value

Configure a timeout value to control the maximum duration an action plan is allowed to run. If the execution exceeds the configured timeout period, the action plan is automatically terminated.

Setting an appropriate timeout helps prevent long-running or stalled workflows from consuming resources indefinitely.

Configure Timeout

1. In the xObserve UI, navigate to Actions > Actions.
2. Click Create Action.
3. On the Create Action page, expand the Timeout section.
4. In the Timeout (seconds) field, enter the maximum execution time in seconds.

5. Click Save Action Plan.

6. Enter the following details:

   1. Name: Specify a name for the action plan.
   2. Description: (Optional) Describe the action plan.

7. Click Submit.

The action plan is saved and appears on the Actions page.

• View Details: Review the action plan configuration and workflow.
• Enable or Disable: Control whether the action plan can be executed.
• Execute: Run the action plan manually.
• Edit: Modify the action plan configuration.
