Code by Zapier step times out on the Free plan though it ran fine in a paid trial

Code step fails with a timeout error in Zap history

Verified 2026-10-15 · Confirmed by 0 builders · Trust 50/100

Cause

Code steps run for 1 second on Free, 30 seconds on Professional and Team, and 2 minutes on Enterprise, and a trial gets the limits of the plan being trialed.

Fix

Keep Code steps short on Free, move HTTP calls to a Webhooks or app step, or use extended runtimes on paid plans.

Apply

Zap editor > Code by Zapier step > Open in Code Editor > Runtime icon > Extended runtime

Affects: Code by Zapier, all plans, as of 2026-10
