Test case

Steps to reproduce

in Angular

return this.cloudFunctions.httpsCallable('myNodeFunction' ({ someArgs:''}).pipe (
tap (result => console.log (result);
)

in node

exports.myNodeFunction = functions.runWith ({ timeoutSeconds: functions.MAX_TIMEOUT_SECONDS }).https.onCall ((data, context): Promise => {
return setTimeout (() => 'function completed successfully', 3 * 60 * 1000);
});

Expected behavior

get "function completed successfully" on console

Actual behavior

get an error after a minute

I am getting the same issue after 60s although I have defined timeoutSeconds: 300. According to the logs the function completes with no errors at around 72s.
"@angular/fire": "^5.2.1",

I had the same issue. But I found a solution using the firebase JS SDK. There are 2 timeouts you can handle, one for the function that runs in the server and other for the client. For the client you can pass a timeout in the JS SDK functions().httpsCallable(functionName, {timeout: 300000});. The functions.HttpsCallableOptions parameter is not available in AngularFire 6.0.0.
