Hi, Anonymous 

 

Scheduled refresh for imported datasets timeout after two hours. This timeout is increased to five hours for datasets in Premium workspaces. If you encounter this limit, consider reducing the size or complexity of your dataset, or consider refactoring the large dataset into multiple smaller datasets.

 

Please refer to the following link, hope it can help you.

    Hi v-zhangti,

    I have already reduced my base, but this just changes the average update time (my updates used to last more than 1 hour and now I'm down to about 20 minutes). What I don't understand are the exceptions that happen ramdomly that exceed 2 hours.
