You can't set a timeout on a per-method basis, but could do something like what is described at this link:

Crafting a Task.TimeoutAfter Method | Parallel Programming with .NET[^]

My google search was "c# timeout with task".

Here's some minimal code that may work for you:

C#

/// <summary>
/// Times out if the task execution takes longer that the specified number of milliseconds.
/// Up to 596.5 hours of timeout can be specified.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="task">The task to execute</param>
/// <param name="msTimeout">How long to wait for the task to return (&lt;= 0 causes
/// this value to be = int.MaxValue.</param>
/// <returns></returns>
public static async Task TimeoutAfter(this Task task, int msTimeout)
{
    // make sure we have a sane timout value
    msTimeout = (msTimeout <= 0) ? int.MaxValue : msTimeout;
    if (task == await Task.WhenAny(task, Task.Delay(msTimeout)))
    {
        await task;
    }
    else
    {
        throw new TimeoutException();
    }
}
