maxDuration
Last updated March 13, 2026
The maxDuration option allows you to set the maximum execution time (in seconds) for server-side logic in a route segment. Deployment platforms can use maxDuration from the Next.js build output to add specific execution limits.
layout.tsx | page.tsx | route.ts
export const maxDuration = 5Server Actions
If using Server Actions, set the maxDuration at the page level to change the default timeout of all Server Actions used on the page.
