Krit_Gable

Hi,

 

I try new Python tool. I discover when I  develop flow involve a lot of data. When  I try code via Jupyter  notebook, It work fine. but when I try in these situation I got an timeout error

 

1. data input with 26 M records

2. Connect data via entire workflows instead develop on jupyter only

 

I got this error  ERROR | timeout waiting for execute to reply (30s)

 

however When I do sub sampling data ( around 20 % of data), The workflow work normally

 

So I have a question is there a way to fix timeout error setting?

Hi @Krit_Gable,

 

Thank you for posting!

 

You are correct: execution timeout per cell is set to 30s by default.

 

As a workaround, you could use of the methods listed there:

Hi all, I've put an idea to have the default timeout changed as I really don't like the current workarounds:
