Set a build timeout

Question & Answer
1

We are using an Elite plan, so it means our build can run for a long time if they hang without moving.

Yesterday a build went undetected for 240 minutes, so it blocked other builds.

Is there a way to set a general timeout for a project? I could find how to add a timeout for a step, but not for a whole build.

Thanks!

Hi there!

Unfortunately this isn’t an option as of now. Technically you could achieve killing your VM based on conditions but we wouldn’t recommend it. A build being able to run for 240 minutes is of course due to an issue and should not happen persistently at all.
