Extending timeout - docker

Off-topic note: I had to create a second account on this forum because for some reason, the traditional login is not showing. It is showing only "Alternative logins".
Topic: Is there a way to increase the timeout of pdf generation for jspreort deployed as docker image? (Azure web app)

I see no env variable for it in your blog.

I am getting sometimes the following error, it doesn't happen always, note that there's a one image as link (img tag) in the html which may be the culprit (that img has to be dynamic because it's related to branding):

You can use
reportTimeoutconfig, set the number of ms there, and pass it to the azure web app as an environment variable.
This can be done in the azure portal / web app / application settings.

another solution was to pass the image as base64 instead of url, it made it faster.

@jan_blaha So generally any property in config can be passed as env variable?

Yes, check these docs - https://jsreport.net/learn/configuration#configuration-sources
jsreport merges configuration from config file, environment variables, command line arguments and also directly from the application code in this exact order.
