API gets stuck for a very long time

Closed

charmed_shield opened this issue

Recently your API script gets stuck for a long time when trying to create a screenshot, last example: 16m 54s (I terminated it manually). This is not a single case, all my last requests end like this. Please fix asap, as I rely on your solution.

Hello,

The problem is using the option "Network is idle". If you use "Network is nearly idle", it will work, see https://console.apify.com/view/runs/yYcIpSJU6yuv7x4E4

Network is idle is dangerous because it expects no traffic and any tracking code can stall it forever. We will add better explanation.
