<p>For example, a defer function is implemented within a webhook's logic (the webhook is written in Golang). The webhook times out after taking too long to complete. In this case, will the defer function still get executed?</p>
<p>The request timeout is set via <a href="https://pkg.go.dev/context#WithTimeout" rel="nofollow noreferrer">context.WithTimeout</a> for the webhook.</p>

<p>It's usually a good idea to clearly mention what programming language you're talking about, although I can figure it out.</p>
<p>In Go, the defer functor (whatever you want to call it) will be executed when the method returns, no matter how it completes, unless you manage to kill the executing process in a drastic manner, and perhaps even then.</p>
