HTTP request runs into timeout

[WDGrimm]

hey community,
I have an http-request that sequentially reads several websites.
Now I have the following problem.
If a page cannot be read, I run into a timeout and the whole scenario stops.
How can I make it so that this website is simply skipped and the system simply tries the next url?
Do you have any ideas?
Thank you very much!

This could be intermittent server issues on the external service.

Handle errors so scenarios don’t stop.

You might want to add some error handling to your modules to handle exceptions, so the failing module(s) can automatically be retried or ignored. By handling any errors by adding a “Error handler” to the module, the scenario won’t throw an error and get turned off.

Error directives can only be added to an error handler route.

1. Right click and select “Add error handler”

2. Select appropriate error handling module

what is the best way to treat the error?

If you just want to skip a single error, perhaps Ignore would work in your case?

that´s it - many thanks!
