Azure function app timeout for app service plan

I did follow the guidelines mentioned in https://learn.microsoft.com/da-dk/azure/azure-functions/functions-host-json#functiontimeout to increase the default timeout of function app host on app service plan from 30 mins to 2h by updating the host file with "functionTimeout": "02:00:00"

On checking function app's event viewer logs, I could see timeout limit is still 30m. Adding the error message for reference,

Appreciate your help in overriding a custom timeout value.

you can always use the attribute [Timeout("1:00:00")] on function level to override the default timeout

If you run on an App Service plan, you should enable the Always on setting so that your function app runs correctly.

Even with Always On enabled, the execution timeout for individual functions is controlled by the functionTimeout setting in the host.json project file.

For more details you could refer to this article.
