I'm thinking you didn't read my initial message carefully, so let me try again.
Yes, I'm using the legacy runtime with the 1 minute limit on frontends. Yes, I'm using the B8 with basic scaling for my API calls, which should not have that limit. Yes, I'm using URL routing via dispatch.yaml, and have confirmed the B8 instance is handling the request by checking the logs. The request is nonetheless failing because it's taking more than one minute. That should not be happening, according to the documentation. Unless there's another 1 minute limit somewhere else that I'm not aware of. -Joshua > On Dec 13, 2020, at 8:58 PM, 'Manpreet Sidhu (Google Cloud Support)' via > Google App Engine <[email protected]> wrote: > > Even though your frontend uses automatic scaling, the work is being done on > the B8 instance that is responsible for running your API service. > > Based on the screenshot that you attached, the B8 instance has to return in > 24 hours.
