How can we improve Azure API Management?

← API Management

Make it possible to call a long-running backend API which need more than 4 minutes to return

Hi team,

We have some legacy backend APIs which need around 10 minutes to return. Yet, the APIM SLB has a defalut timeout for 4 minutes, which is not changeable from the user side even if I set forward-request timeout to be 15 minutes via Policy, I have never got a response from the APIM. The 4 minutes limit can be avoided by a keep live logic. Could you please implement this while calling a backend API and make sure the timeout can meet the value set in the Policy.

    This is really a big pain for big data. We have a lot of process needing much more time than 4 min. Sometimes even 15-20. And they all stop/crash because of the 4minutes break. Please push that forward!
