Set timeout for specific async request in Spring-boot

Question

I have an sync endpoint defined as follows:

@PostMapping(\"/some/url/\")
@ResponseBody
public Future something(...) {
    ... do stuff ...
}


        

Answer 1

You can return WebAsyncTask that supports timeout.

From docs: For a Callable, you can use WebAsyncTask to provide a timeout value

Answer 2

Can you please try to add below property in application.properties.

spring.mvc.async.request-timeout = # Amount of time (in milliseconds) before asynchronous request handling times out.
