title: How do I set the request timeout for one controller action in an asp.net mvc application
body: <p>I want to increase the request timeout for a specific controller action in my application. I know I can do it in the web.config for the entire application, but I'd rather change it on just this one action.</p>
  
  <p>Web.config example:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;system.web&gt;
    &lt;httpRuntime executionTimeout="1000" /&gt; 
  &lt;/system.web&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How do I do it?</p>
