'Vercel: Task timed out after 10.01 seconds

I recently deployed a Next.js application for a software engineering boot camp. I am using Vercel for hosting the web app. The problem I am having has been spoken about on the internet before. However, I couldn't find much helpful information.

When I look at the real-time logs for my application from my Vercel dashboard, a 504 error gets thrown for multiple API routes I have created. I am aware that Vercel places restrictions on requests depending on the hosting plan someone subscribes to. However, I can't help but wonder if I have overlooked an important step when deploying my application.

When deploying my application, I did the following things:

  1. Connected a session store to my MongoDB database.
  2. Created a password-protected MongoDB Atlas account (credentials are environment variables).
  3. White-listed all IP addresses so that any user can interact with their portion of the database.

I would appreciate help finding out if these errors are my fault and if there is anything I can do about them or if they are solely caused by the restrictions of the "Hobby" plan.

Thank you very much in advance, -Sam

You have to troubleshoot the issue by doing the following

  1. Eliminate the NextJS app out of the equation - Using postman https://www.postman.com/downloads/ - Confirm the output of your API, what is the time the API takes? Given function invocation has a limit, you need to optimize the API to meet the threshold.
  2. If the API times are fine and resolution occurs outside of your app, the next step is to troubleshoot the API route, remove the DB parts and just echo back a success message and check the function invocation time.

If #2 turns out to be the issue, reach out to vercel support - Another option could be hosting it outside and whitelisting the cross domain API ask from your application.

I had a similar issue, turned out, it was just the fact that I did not add the vercel ip addr to the network access page on mongodb so momgodb was blocking vercel from accessing data.
