makeHttpRequest (timeout)

Daniel | Last updated: Sep 20, 2016 03:26PM UTC

Hi, I am creating a Burp extension which is using the makeHttpRequest functionality in order to send some requests, but I would like to assign a maximum timeout to these request. Some of them could not have a response. How I could do this? Cheers, Daniel

There isn't a way to specify the timeout on a per-request basis, sorry. This can be done globally by the user at Project options / Connections / Timeouts. As with any other project-level configs, your extension could also set these values programmatically using the preferences API.
