AI BriefingExtended execution time support for workflow steps
Key point
On Vercel's Pro and Enterprise plans, the maximum execution time for workflow steps has been significantly extended from 800 seconds to 30 minutes.
Details
Pro and Enterprise plan users on Vercel can now run workflow steps for up to 30 minutes (1800 seconds), up from the previous 800 seconds, using the extended function durations (beta) feature.
To use this feature, you need to set VERCEL_ENABLE_WORKFLOW_EXTENDED_MAX_DURATION to 1 in your project's Environment Variables and then redeploy. However, this requires Fluid compute and a supported Node.js or Python runtime.
Notes are as follows:
- The Hobby plan does not offer the extended feature and remains limited to 5 minutes (300 seconds) as before.
- Detailed function execution time limits by plan can be found in the official documentation.
