In the doc, it says Google Workspace add-on runtime is 30s / execution for Google Workspace accounts. My question is if it applies to both Editor Add-on and Workspace Add-on? 

I'm developing an Editor Add-on and able to run a Test Deployment with a function running up to 300s (by Utilities.sleep(300*1000)), so I assume the limit is only for Workspace Add-on, not Editor add-on?

Thanks for sharing anything based on your experience.

p.s The naming for the two types are so confusingly similar that one has to extra careful in communicating which one it is.

Hi

Put simply: an Editor Add-on would be 6 minutes. A Workspace Add-on has a 30 second callback limit.

Kind regards
Phil
