Hello!
I want to know if there's a way to set max timeout of HTTP requests on Manychat for more than 10001 ms? I have a service that gets values from custom fields and build a chatGPT prompt, and in this moment it takes more than this to return a response, making the request fail.
Do you guys know any alternatives?
Thanks.

Requests to openai.com have longer timeout, I think it’s 30 or 60 seconds, not 100% sure. Either way, it works fine.
If you do the request to another domain then you need to create an asynchronous flow, which is more work, but also gets the job done.
I suggest you try to make the external request from Manychat directly to openai.com and you issue will be sorted.
Yeah man, it SUCKS.
How am I supposed to use it in a complex scenario where I need to wait for an AI response and the AI has to analyse a bunch of knowledge and take its time to delevop an decent answer. Forcing a max 10sec timeout is just RIDICULOUS. Manychat SUCKS. I hope everyone reading this can find another tool that is actually decent.

If it is possible could you tell me how I can integrate Assistants API directly with ManyChat?
+6Hey
Here's a video about it (it's in Spanish, but you can use captions translated to English):
Feel free to send me a private message if you have any questions about this ;)
Thank you, I just got Liam Ottley’s template to work.
Turns out that I was feeding one variable as “status” instead of “response”. I implemented the async manychat replit hook.
I will try expanding this for my use case now and will ask if I need any help.
Your posts also helped a lot. Thank you.
