Hello,
I’m encountering a TimeoutException when using the Copy Activity in Microsoft Fabric Data Factory to transfer data from PostgreSQL to a Lakehouse.
The error message is:
Could someone advise on how to configure connection parameters, such as timeouts or other settings, in Fabric Data Factory? Is there a workaround to resolve this timeout issue?
Thank you!

Hi @Bhargava05 ,
Check if the configured query timeout is valid after the extension.
Alternatively, you can refer to the following documentation on configuring PostgreSQL for copy activity:
Configure PostgreSQL in a copy activity - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn
Class NpgsqlCommand | Npgsql Documentation

Hi @Anonymous Thanks for you reply.
I don't see such a parameter as Query timeout in my source configurations of my copy activity.
Below is the snippet of the same for your reference.
