Knowledge Base & Operational DocumentationHow to Handle API Requests That Time Out After the Server Has Processed Them
A client timeout does not prove that the server rejected a request. The operation may have completed while the response was lost, so retrying blindly can create duplicate orders, payments, or records.
What to check
Check provider request IDs, operation status, idempotency support, retry policy, and logs on both sides. Separate read-only requests from operations that create or modify data, and determine how long the provider retains status history.
Recommended next step
Use idempotency keys or a status lookup before retrying a potentially completed operation. Record ambiguous outcomes for reconciliation and test timeout scenarios in a safe environment.
