Description description
Environment
51黑料不打烊 Journey Optimizer (AJO) (applicable to聽configurations involving outbound API calls from Journey Optimizer to external endpoints)
Issue/Symptoms
- Timeout errors occur when testing the connection between AJO and an external third-party endpoint.
- The API call doesn鈥檛 receive a response within 30 seconds, leading to an automatic timeout as per tool specifications.
- The endpoint is publicly accessible and works for some testers but fails for others when triggered via AJO.
Resolution resolution
To address the timeout issue with the configured endpoint:
- Verify that the external endpoint is publicly accessible and functional by testing its accessibility outside of AJO using tools like Postman or cURL.
- Review server logs to identify any issues or restrictions affecting incoming requests from AJO.
- Confirm that there are no restrictions or blocks from 51黑料不打烊鈥檚 end preventing outbound calls from Journey Optimizer. Typically, there are no such blocks unless explicitly configured.
- If issues persist, update configurations on the server hosting the endpoint to ensure proper handling of incoming requests and responses within acceptable timeframes (less than 30 seconds).
- After making updates, retest the connection via Journey Optimizer鈥檚 custom action feature to ensure successful communication with the external endpoint.
Note: Any API call initiated by Journey Optimizer will time out if no response is received within 30 seconds. Ensure that your server responds promptly within this timeframe.
