Got ResponseHandlingException: timed out when upserting data to Qdrant

[kennywongck]

I got an error when I try to upsert data to Qdrant, is this a bug of the qdrant-client or issue with my code?

.venv/Lib/site-packages/qdrant_client/http/api_client.py:109) return response

ResponseHandlingException: timed out

from qdrant_client import QdrantClient

endpoint = "some endpoint"
api_key = "some key"
client = QdrantClient(url = endpoint, port=443, api_key=api_key, https=False )

# record_list is a json list
for record in record_list:

    client.upsert(
        collection_name = collection_name,
        points=[
        models.PointStruct(
            id=record["record_id"],  # You can use an integer or a string as the ID
            vector=record["vector"],
            payload=record
        )
    ]
    )

I set the port for qdrant as 443

python version 3.11
qdrant-client==1.10.1

Likely not a client bug. Upserting one point at a time is slow and easy to time out.

Also with port 443 you usually want https=True.

Try something like this:

client = QdrantClient(
    url=endpoint,
    api_key=api_key,
    https=True,
    prefer_grpc=True,
    timeout=120,
)

points = [
    models.PointStruct(
        id=record["record_id"],
        vector=record["vector"],
        payload=record,
    )
    for record in record_list
]

for i in range(0, len(points), 256):
    client.upsert(
        collection_name=collection_name,
        points=points[i:i+256],
    )

Batching usually fixes it. If it still times out, raise the timeout or use a smaller batch.
