Team,
Please, could you help me how to increase the update time, I'm using the Salesforce data source to connect, but there comes a time that presents this error, due to the update time.
Error: Erro do OLE DB ou do ODBC : [DataSource.Error] The operation timed out.
Thanks
Hi @Anonymous ,
This error message means your requests have exceeded the timeout limits and the remote database breaks the connections.
Please increase connection timeout. For SQL database, we can change the command timeout in Advanced options of Data source settings directly.
Please refer to:Sql.Database - PowerQuery M | Microsoft Learn
Best regards,

@v-yadongf-msft Hi,
Hello, as I'm connecting directly to SalesForce, I don't have that option. Is there another option?
Thanks
Did you resolve this?
Hi @Anonymous ,
This is suitable for SQL data source.
In addition to the error of data source timed out , there seems to be several other errors at the same time. What are these errors? Are they have been solved?
Best regards,
