# Timeout

> Source: https://scrape.do/documentation/api-response/timeout/

Set request timeout

You can set the timeout value for the request you will send to the target website.

The value it can take must be between 5000 ms and 120000 ms. If the time is exceeded, system will return you that the request failed.

**cURL (API mode)**

```bash
curl --location --request GET 'https://api.scrape.do/?token=YOUR_TOKEN&url=https://httpbin.co/sse?delay=1s&timeout=10000'
```

**Python (API mode)**

```python
import requests
import urllib.parse
token = "YOUR_TOKEN"
targetUrl = urllib.parse.quote("https://httpbin.co/sse?delay=1s")
timeout = "10000"
url = "http://api.scrape.do/?token={}&url={}&timeout={}".format(token, targetUrl,timeout)
response = requests.request("GET", url)
print(response.text)
```

**Node.js (API mode)**

```javascript
const axios = require('axios');
const token = "YOUR_TOKEN";
const targetUrl = encodeURIComponent("https://httpbin.co/sse?delay=1s");
const timeout = "10000";
const config = {
    'method': 'GET',
    'url': `https://api.scrape.do/?token=${token}&url=${targetUrl}&timeout=${timeout}`,
    'headers': {}
};
axios(config)
    .then(function (response) {
        console.log(response.data);
    })
    .catch(function (error) {
        console.log(error);
    });
```

**cURL (Proxy mode)**

```bash
curl -k -x "http://YOUR_TOKEN:timeout=10000@proxy.scrape.do:8080" 'https://httpbin.co/sse?delay=1s' -v
```

**Python (Proxy mode)**

```python
import requests
import urllib3
urllib3.disable_warnings(urllib3.exceptions.InsecureRequestWarning)
url = "https://httpbin.co/sse?delay=1s"
token = "YOUR_TOKEN"
proxyModeUrl = "http://{}:timeout=10000@proxy.scrape.do:8080".format(token)
proxies = {
    "http": proxyModeUrl,
    "https": proxyModeUrl,
}
response = requests.request("GET", url, proxies=proxies, verify=False)
print(response.text)
```

**Node.js (Proxy mode)**

```javascript
const axios = require('axios');
const token = "YOUR_TOKEN";
const targetUrl = "https://httpbin.co/sse?delay=1s";

axios({
    method:"GET",
    url:targetUrl,
    proxy: {
        protocol:'http',
        host: 'proxy.scrape.do',
        port: 8080,
        auth: {
            username: token,
            password: 'timeout=10000'
        }
    }
})
    .then(response => {
        console.log(response.data);
    })
    .catch(error => {
