What Could Be the Possible Reason for an Out of Memory Error on the First Step of a Workflow Process?

This topic was automatically generated from Slack. You can find the original thread here.

I have noticed since last few days workflow shows out of memory error while no step is executed. Out of memory error on first step which is trigger only (wehhook url). However I can see the data has been populated in this step.

May I know the possible reason of this error.

It looks like it happened on the trigger, but actually that error is just returned from the workflow. Unfortunately there’s no way to tie it to a specific step, but let me know if these docs help troubleshoot: Troubleshooting Common Issues

Not able to understand most of the time it run but in ome time it gives out of memory error

I’m sorry to hear you’re experiencing out of memory errors with your Pipedream workflow. This can occur for a couple of reasons: 1. If you’re loading a large file or object into memory, try to stream the file to/from disk instead of storing it in memory. You can find a technique for this in the HTTP Requests documentation. 2. If your workflow has many steps, this can also lead to out of memory errors due to the overhead of running separate processes for each step. Workflows with more than 8-10 steps can sometimes encounter this issue. To address this, you can increase the memory available to your workflow in the workflow settings. The default memory limit can be raised to help accommodate workflows that require more resources. If you continue to have issues or need further assistance, please visit Pipedream’s support page.

Message:
You've exceeded the default memory for this workflow. You can raise the memory in your workflow's Settings. See https://pipedream.com/docs/troubleshooting/#out-of-memory
