Question: Is it possible to increase the hook.go timeout?

[adambraimbridge]

Hello,

I'm using the Netlify authentication webhook to call a function which generates a new cloudant database:

Above: Netlify webhook configuration

Above: Cloudant database that's created via the webhook function

The function has to return the credentials for the newly-created database, which is saved as app_metadata in the user's Netlify identity account.

Although the code does behave as expected, the hook returns a timeout error.

"Failed to perform webhook in time frame."

#error=server_error&error_description=Failed+to+perform+webhook+in+time+frame+%285+seconds%29`

I can see that the timeout is in the hooks.go script. Is it possible to extend that timeout? Perhaps from a global, environment or configuration variable?

https://github.com/netlify/gotrue/blob/master/api/hooks.go#L106

Many thanks, Adam.
