Backing off _request(...) for 4.3s (requests.exceptions.ReadTimeout: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='<http://api.jobdiva.com|api.jobdiva.com>', port=443): Read timed out. (read timeout=300))
I keep getting this error on the 2nd stream of my tap. It runs the first few batches just fine then I get this error. Where can I increase the timeout?

Assuming you're using the sdk: https://sdk.meltano.com/en/latest/code_samples.html#custom-backoff might be worth looking at
i
keep-alive: timeout=60
 if my response shows this in the headers, should I set it to 60 instead?
(the response from manually querying the api)

You can also set the timeout property of your stream class. The default is 300, so setting it to a lower value wouldn't help.

I figured, if this is being caused by some record, how could I just skip the faulty record?
turns out it isn't a bad record - just a huge response
So could I just add it in the tap stream class like:
Copy code
@property
    def timeout(self) -> int:
        return 3600
e
Yup!

Sick - let's hope that works hahaha
sidenote - is there a place I can also specify the call limit? it's 120x per minute so I doubt I'll ever hit it but just in case
e
Like a client-side rate limit?

I put this logic into tap-rest-api-msdk. It will read the backoff time from the the header or the message response depending on what the tap parameter is set to. I also added a 
backoff_time_extension
as sometimes the reported time to backoff is not long enough, it will add this on top of the recommended backoff time in the API response. https://github.com/s7clarke10/tap-rest-api-msdk/blob/4f87c1adae00446388ebbe418c70b87c231856dc/tap_rest_api_msdk/streams.py#L231-L269
