Change timeout for retrieving data from Domino

About this task

The procedure guides you on how to change the timeout for retrieving data from Domino to give long-running operations, such as complex DQL queries, more time to complete before timing out.

Procedure

  1. Create a JSON file using a text editor.

  2. Copy the JSON object to the JSON file.

    {
    "httpIdleTimeout": [timeout value in seconds]
}

    Important

    The httpIdleTimeout parameter must be defined as the sole entry in its own configuration JSON file. It must not be added to a JSON file that contains other configuration parameters, as this may result in configuration errors.

  3. Change the value of the httpIdleTimeout parameter to your preferred timeout value in seconds. In the example, the timeout is set to 300 seconds or 5 minutes.

    {
    "httpIdleTimeout" : 300
}

  4. Save the JSON file in the keepconfig.d directory.

    Tip

    Use a filename for the JSON file that reveals its purpose. To learn more on how JSON files in keepconfig.d are processed, see Configuration management and overlay hierarchy.

  5. Restart Domino REST API on all servers.
