    Hi abhi9255,

     

    For SQL database, we can change the command timeout in Advanced options of  Data source settings directly.

     

     

    And here is the M code for your reference.

     

     

     

    let
    Source = Sql.Databases("Servername", [CommandTimeout=#duration(0, 0, 35, 0)]),
    TestGatewayDocs = Source{[Name="databasename"]}[Data],
    dbo_Product3 = databasename{[Schema="dbo",Item="Product3"]}[Data]
in
    dbo_Product3

     

    Regards,

    Frank

Hi, v-frfei-msft 

I keep getting scheduled refresh fails due to
Before the data import for (Data Source Name) finished, its data source timed out.

Why is there no option like this for PBI desktop for other sources like excel?
