Qlik Application Automation: request timeout when using custom code blocks and importing libraries

[Shai_E]

A custom code block with imported libraries (such as json requests) returns request timed out during its request library HTTP request when the automation is run.

Environment:

Qlik Cloud 
Qlik Application Automation 
Qlik Application Automation OEM 

Custom code blocks do not support external libraries. 

Resolution

If you need a custom automation that includes imported libraries, host the code externally and execute it using the call URL block.
