The title pretty much says it all.
Since it's not possible to cancel a refresh in the service, I was wondering if it's possible to add a timeout in the refresh so it can fail fast?
(My underlying data-source is an OData API)
Hi @alexbjorlig ,
For your description, I think you can open the advanced editor in power query, challenge to the M code page, and add the timeout time parameter at the location marked in the screenshot below.
[timeout=#duration(0,0,10,0)]))
For more details, you can read related document.
Power Query Web connector | Microsoft Docs
If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information and related operation screenshoots. Looking forward to your reply.
Best Regards,
Henry

I'm not concerned with a timeout a specific query, but for the general reload time of the app.
