I am currently working on a complex workflow, who is working well.
But, in one of my execution cases, I have received this following error while trying to fetch list of identities using query (refered to the following case : Get list of identities workflow : Error : activity StartToClose timeout)
Also, I have investigate about the workflow’s execution but nothing is strange except a timeout with the message : activity StartToClose timeout.
However, the workflow execution is marked as “Complete”, even though some actions have not been carried out in the workflow.
Yes, this is expected behavior. Workflows will attempt to retry actions that fail, and this error message is just to inform you that a retry was attempted due to a timeout. If the workflow was unable to successfully retry an action, then the workflow would have failed with an error, but since this completed successfully it was a successful retry.
As to why some of your actions didn’t seem to carry out, that would require a deeper investigation into the logs for that particular execution.
