In case of a bulk import job timeout, what action should be considered next?

When facing a bulk import job timeout, the most prudent action to take is to check the activity logs for errors. This step is crucial because it allows you to identify the specific reasons why the job timed out. The logs provide detailed information about the operations performed during the import process, any issues encountered, or errors that occurred. Understanding these errors is essential for diagnosing the problem and determining an appropriate solution to prevent future timeouts.

By reviewing the activity logs, you can also ensure that you address any underlying issues rather than simply restarting the job without insight, which may lead to repeated failures. This diagnostic approach is fundamental in troubleshooting and enables you to make informed decisions about how to proceed effectively.
