Hi guys,

Silly question here. I am trying to create a Grafana datasource that uses the Grafana server’s backend service to make HTTP request for me. I do noticed that the request are timing out at 30th second instead of the usual 60 seconds.

Is there a configuration I can make to increase this? Since HTTP specification suggests the timeout to be 60 second.

how do you know it wont time out yet again at 60? probably revisit what it is you are trying to do

@yosiasz, thanks for your response.

My query takes around 30-31 seconds on average to execute. I chose 60 as the timeout value because it aligns with the default timeout specified in the HTTP specification.

I do not have control over the server performing the query. Hope it helps.

@yosiasz A mistake on my side about the specs.

Do you have answer to my question?
