Timeout

Maximum amount of time that Azure Data Factory will wait for the Databricks Notebook Activity to complete. Format is in D.HH:MM:SS; the default of 0.12:00:00 is 12 hours.

The value is applied as the timeout on the Databricks Notebook and Databricks Job activities in the generated Azure Data Factory pipelines. A blank value is treated as 0.12:00:00.

When to Change This Setting

Keep the default 12 hours unless individual notebook runs legitimately take longer, or you want hung runs to fail faster so the batch surfaces the problem and the retry policy can take over.
