# ConnectorTimeoutSecs

The maximum amount of time (in seconds) that the Distributed Connector waits for a connector to finish a job. A connector must complete a job and respond to the Distributed Connector by sending a `FetchFinished` action before the time limit expires. If the limit is reached, the Distributed Connector discards the job.

NOTE: You should consider increasing the value of `ConnectorTimeoutSecs`, because many jobs will take longer than 60 seconds.

The value of the `ConnectorTimeoutSecs` parameter should exceed the sum of:

- The maximum amount of time an action is expected to spend in the connector's action queue.
- The maximum amount of time a connector might take to complete the job. Note that a job might involve the connector retrieving many documents, because the Distributed Connector can send documents to a connector in batches.

NOTE: This parameter does not apply to the `View` action.
