I have client-side code that sends requests to server for some data. Sometime server don't respond and it take too long to establish connection. I want to set some timeout functionality on client-side so after that timeout, client will stop to try connecting server. In simple web request we can use timeout functionality. For example I am using the following code somewhere else and it is working fine for non-signalr request.

But when I send request through signalr, I can not set timeout to end this request and show user a message that data could not be fetched from server. On this site someone suggested "Send a specific string to the client to force the disconnect" but that is not my scenario. I want to handle it on client side.

var refit = RestService.For<SomeApi>(new HttpClient
{
    BaseAddress = new Uri(BASE_URL),
    Timeout = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(30)
});

Or I cay say in simple words, i want to call something like HubConnection.close() if client could not connect to server in 30 seconds. – user6159419 Jan 25 '19 at 16:29
Don't you want to call hubConnection.StopAsync(); – Bruno Caceiro Jan 25 '19 at 16:30
I think i need something like this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10409357/safely-stop-long-running-task but I don't know how can I use it in my case. – user6159419 Jan 25 '19 at 17:53
