I want to use Timeout scope activity since read pdf file activity has no timeout properties. While I test this activity via simple message box with timespan 2 seconds, it appear that the timeout scope dosen’t work because it has already exceeded 2 seconds without any timeout expection alert.
Hi @JosephLai,
You are not getting error because you are using message boxes here & the execution is waiting to receive the response on message box. Try using some different activity which doesn’t require a human interaction. You will get an error after timeout exceeded.
Hi, thanks for rapid answering.
However, the demo video of timeout scope (video link) is via message box. So I think it is not related to human-intervened activities.
Hi @JosephLai,
But you can see, A delay activity of 5 seconds is used there. I just used open browser there & it exceeded the time.
I use the read pdf text activity and set timeout span equal to 5 seconds. It ends up showing no timeout exception instead.
The Read PDF Text does not take 5 seconds to execute (depends upon file’s kb/mb size). That’s why I guess it is not throwing an error. For me the activity is executed within a second.
yes, I know what you are saying. The important is that the screen cut shows the process which only contains the timeout scope and read pdf activity did not end.
So, if it ends perfectly, the log displayed in the output section will show the end time of the process.
