    For timeout error, you may have to try different duration to test the connection timeout. See details here - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerquery-m/sql-database


    Example:
    Source = Sql.Database("Servername", "tablename", [option1, option2, ConnectionTimeout=#duration(0, 0, 20, 0)])
    or
    Source = Sql.Databases("Servername", [option1, option2, ConnectionTimeout=#duration(0, 0, 20, 0)])

https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/idb-p/Issues

And if it is not there, then you could post it.
