Node js Service Doesnt Return anything - node.js

Question

i have a simple code to wait for 10 min in "api/get" endpoint in Node js despite of keeping the both req.setTimeout(9000000); and server.setTimeout(5000000); still neither there is any error nor i am getting any result.It simply gets stuck.

I figured out that after 4 mins or so the httpClient closes and does not give response out.So to overcome it you can probable poll on the endpoint after 2 mins and see if result is available or not and then get the result.
