# How to configure a component timeout?

Each component in a flow (such as tool modules, triggers, etc.) can be configured with a specific execution time and a number of retry attempts before an error occurs.

Additionally, you can set a maximum time limit for the complete execution of the flow.

{% hint style="info" %}
By default, the maximum flow execution time setting is 15 minutes.
{% endhint %}

Therefore, it is important to ensure that the component settings align with those of the flow.

### **Practical Example** 

Consider a module configured with a 5 minute execution time and 2 retry attempts.

However, in the “**Settings**” section, under the "**Execution Settings**" tab, the flow is configured with a **maximum execution time** of 5 minutes.

In this example, there will be a conflict, resulting in an error when executing the flow.

Therefore, when configuring the execution time for a flow, it is recommended to consider the cumulative execution times of each component to avoid errors during flow execution.

### **Component execution settings**

In addition to adjusting the execution time for each component individually, you can also set a default execution time pattern for all components.

To do this, go to "**Settings**", then the "**Execution Settings**" tab, and configure the component time in "**Component execution settings**".

{% hint style="warning" %}
Importan&#x74;**:** Components that have already been configured or added previously will not be changed. Only new components will follow the new settings established in this area.
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.skyone.cloud/english/skyone-studio/how-to/how-to-configure-a-component-timeout.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
