Hello @chandrakala.productanalys

  1. Assign activity:
    startTime = DateTime.Now

  2. Retry Scope activity:
    Set the Number of Retries property to an appropriate value (e.g., 5 retries).

    Inside the Retry Scope:
    a. Web automation activities to download the report.

    b. If activities:
    Condition: DateTime.Now.Subtract(startTime).TotalMinutes > 4
    Actions:
    - Log Message: “Download taking too long. Halting workflow.”
    - Terminate Workflow activity

Thanks & Cheers!!!

  1. Retry Scope Activity:
  • Drag and drop a “Retry Scope” activity onto your workflow.
  • Set the MaxRetries property to control how many times the operation should be retried.
  1. Inside the Retry Scope Activity:
  • Place your web automation activities, such as clicking buttons, navigating, and downloading the report.
  1. Add a Timeout for Each Activity:
  • For each activity within the Retry Scope, set the TimeoutMS property to a value that makes sense for that specific activity. This value represents the maximum time that the activity is allowed to execute before UiPath considers it failed.
  • For example, if you have a “Click” activity, set its TimeoutMS property to 240000 for a 4-minute timeout.
  1. Handling Timeout Exception:
  • After the Retry Scope, use a “Try Catch” activity.
  • Inside the “Try” block, place the activities that are within the Retry Scope.
  • In the “Catch” block, add a “Log Message” activity to log a message such as “Loading time exceeded the specified threshold. Halting workflow.”
  • Add additional activities as needed to halt the workflow. For example, you can use a “Throw” activity to throw a custom exception or perform other actions to stop the workflow.

Create a variable of datetime say starttime and then assign DateTime.Now before starting download or load

after the download or load use a if codnition and check if the difference crossed 3 minutes

(DateTime.Now - StartTime).ToTalMinutes > 3

on then side use terminate workflow and on else side continue the process and do nothing

cheers
