Creating an Azure AI Index

Question

I am trying to point my Azure AI project to an Azure AI Index. I keep getting this error:

Failed to create vector index. Timeout of 20000ms exceeded. Trace ID : 11991bff-7f40-4187-a59f-2755c5a32751Client request ID : f2c3c667-e588-460f-97a0-9be19658c76f

How do I get around this? Thank you

Hello @Daniel DiCesare it looks like your Azure AI Search service was unable to create the vector index within the allotted time and timed out after 20secs. What is the size of the index?

Here are a few ways to trouble shoot the issue:

1. Reduce the number of documents or fields. You can also consider using a smaller field type or data type for certain fields.
2. If your service plan is limited, consider upgrading to a higher-tier plan with more resources.
3. Lastly, make sure your network connection is stable and that there are no firewalls or other security measures blocking access to the Azure AI Search service.

Hope that helps.
