Normally, my pipelines take 15 minutes to execute.
Recently, for some strange reasons, some pipelines take between 45 minutes and 6 hours to fail.
Is it possible to set a default timeout limit on GitHub Action's pipeline (for example, auto cancel after 30 minutes)?
We often set a “pip” timeout of 1 or 2 minutes to ensure the CI is using wheels instead of compiling from source, which can take tens of minutes or fail. A job-level timeout can likewise be set.
To run jobs sequentially, you can define dependencies on other jobs using the jobs. <job_id>. needs keyword. Each job runs in a runner environment specified by runs-on .
github.head_ref. string. The head_ref or source branch of the pull request in a workflow run. This property is only available when the event that triggers a workflow run is either pull_request or pull_request_target . github.job.
GitHub Actions is a feature provided by GitHub to create workflows which can run on triggering any GitHub event, for eg run the build of the project on creation of a pull request. GitHub actions can be configured by creation of a workflow in the form of a yaml file and placing it under .
There are two timeout can be set: project timeout and runner timeout. It is possible to set timeout per job from Settings -> CI/CD -> General pipelines runner's timeout can be set from Settings -> CI/CD -> Runners, select the runner from Runners activated for this project and edit the Maximum job timeout from the runner edit form.

timeout allows you to configure a timeout for a specific job. For example: build: script: build.sh timeout: 3 hours 30 minutes test: script: rspec timeout: 3h 30m The job-level timeout can exceed the project-level timeout but can’t exceed the Runner-specific timeout. Can you set the timeout while running the gitlab-runner locally?
You can set a global timeout in "Project settings -> CI/CD Pipelines -> Timeout" or "Project settings -> Builds -> Timeout" in older versions. As of version 12.3, you can set a timeout per stage in your CI .yml file using timeout: timeout allows you to configure a timeout for a specific job. For example:
You can change default time limit in two ways
job.<id>.timeout-minutes
sets a timeout for a whole jobjob.<id>.steps.timeout-minutes
sets a timeout for a single stepYour scenario:
my-job:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
timeout-minutes: 30
