I'm trying to set env vars in my GitHub Action but continuously get timeout errors for the following CLI command:

RAILWAY_TOKEN=<token> railway variables --service <service_id> --environment <env_id> --set "SENTRY_RELEASE=api-test"

Failed to fetch: error sending request for url (https://backboard.railway.com/graphql/v2)

Caused by:

0: error sending request for url (https://backboard.railway.com/graphql/v2)

1: operation timed out

The issue also exists when trying through my local terminal and has persisted for >72h now.

There is also this GitHub issue for almost 2 months now: https://github.com/railwayapp/cli/issues/655

This seems to be the same issue I have: railway/cli not working in Github Actions - Timeout

3 months later it is still not fixed tho, and apparently not even being worked on.

Hi there, could you:

  1. try using --skip-deploys to confirm the issue

  2. link the service you're trying to deploy?

Thanks for getting back to me!

I have tried --skip-deploys which resolved the error locally but not in my GitHub Action.
I don't see an option to link a service to an existing thread. The error happens for all of the services in my account. Hope this helps.

Sorry, I meant sending a link to the service itself.

For now, the timeout is expected. Our gateway has a timeout, and if your deploy takes longer than our timeout, you will get a 504. So, using that flag is going to be the recommended approach.
