GCP Vision async_batch_annotate_files timeout

Question

I have been using the gcp vision api pdf extraction for a month, but recently I am getting timeout errors.

type=vision.enums.Feature.Type.DOCUMENT_TEXT_DETECTION)
The error is 'Operation did not complete within the designated timeout.'

Perhaps it is infrastructure issues as the codebase hasn't changed but how can I find out from Google?

How long have you been facing this problem? Is it failing all the time or only sometimes? — rmesteves, May 13 '20 at 10:38
I am having the same issue today, been using it for over a month too. Maybe it is some issue with the API? I hope because so far no clue. — DarioB, May 13 '20 at 16:28
Its been working perfectly for a month, but is not working anymore. It looks like it is partly processing the files, as I can see them on gcp storage but the server is not responding to the client properly. — Amarjeet Sihota, May 13 '20 at 23:47
Same problem here, looks to be a problem with async for some reason. Just tested with batch_annotate_files instead and I received a response — Brian Connors, May 13 '20 at 17:50
The async operations were finishing yesterday, but took a long time to finish. Seems like you were using the client library. How long do you poll the operation before you give up? — Brendan, May 15 '20 at 04:56
normally I use 120 seconds, yesterday I had it for 10 minutes — Amarjeet Sihota, May 15 '20 at 05:11
We just had the same problem today again. Seems to be intermittant... — cputoaster, May 19 '20 at 13:57

Looks like it is working again, the logs and metrics say it was always up but that was obviously not the case
