How to set timeout apoc.load.json in neo4j

Question

I run a Cypher query CALL apoc.load.json("URL") and Neo4j returns this error message:

Can't read url ... as json: Read timed out

How to set timeout for this?

Answer 1

There is a configuration to put into your neo4j.conf file :

apoc.http.timeout.connect=10000

Value is in millisecond. You can take a look at the code for more information : https://github.com/neo4j-contrib/neo4j-apoc-procedures/blob/b9a4e587265e4f168098e2d1e6135ff19985fc59/src/main/java/apoc/util/Util.java#L234

NB: There is also a apoc.http.timeout.read params.
