Dataflow Timeout

Trying to make a new dataflow from a web API... so far I have been successful on all of the entities except the largest one (about 1M rows)... it will not load without a timeout error after about 10 minutes. It loads fine in PBI Desktop, but not in the dataflow. 

 

"The evaluation could not be finished: Evaluation was cancelled, message: Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation. (Session ID: 190a79bb-98e1-4bee-b3f9-eebeeabab0b9)"

 

Is there any way to increase the timeout duration? I would like to avoid breaking it up into multiple entities if possible.

 

Thanks!
