Specifies the maximum time (in minutes) the provider waits for a query completion before timing out.

Data Type

int

Default Value

20

Remarks

The connector submits SELECT queries as asynchronous jobs in Salesforce Data Cloud. The connector then polls Salesforce Data Cloud at regular intervals to check if the results are completed and to fetch more.

This property controls the total amount of time the connector waits for the query to complete before timing out. If the query takes longer than this duration, the connection fails with a timeout error. A longer QueryTimeout allows Salesforce Data Cloud more time to process large or complex queries, reducing the chance of failure due to timeouts. However, setting this value too high may cause long waits for queries that are unlikely to complete successfully.

This property is different from Timeout, which applies to all connection requests and governs inactivity rather than the execution time of a bulk query.

This property is useful when dealing with large datasets or slow-running queries in Salesforce Data Cloud. Adjusting this value can help balance query success rates and timeout handling based on expected execution time.
