Avoiding Timeouts: Delete a List of Things vs Schedule API Workflow

My users can delete a table’s worth of data limited to 400 rows max. There are 10 fields in the table so at most, 4,000 items can be deleted with one button click. I’ve tried using the Delete a List of Things workflow and the Schedule an API Workflow on a List actions and both take about the same amount of time.

The app can handle deleting up to 250 rows pretty well but it times out after that. I’d like to refresh the page before the it times out but I can’t do this until after the delete action completes. Is this just a capacity issue?

You can use recursive workflow, here is the explanation from bubble manual, also make sure to search on the forum.
