Try this-

In Machine.config

HTML

<configuration> 
  <system.transactions>
    <machinesettings maxtimeout="00:30:00" />
  </system.transactions>
</configuration>

In App.config

HTML

<system.transactions>
     <defaultsettings timeout="00:30:00" />
</system.transactions>

In case this doesn't work, please let me know.

Please elaborate where can I find machine.config as I have .net mvc web api project (not core) and I only see web.config and app.config files. Regards!

// This is used for set the transaction timeout to 40 minutes.
Type objSystemType = typeof(global::System.Transactions.TransactionManager);
System.Reflection.FieldInfo oCachedMaxTimeout = objSystemType.GetField("_cachedMaxTimeout", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Static);
System.Reflection.FieldInfo oMaximumTimeout = objSystemType .GetField("_maximumTimeout", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Static);
oCachedMaxTimeout.SetValue(null, true);
oMaximumTimeout.SetValue(null, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(2400));

// For testing to confirm value was changed
// var show=(string.Format("DEBUG SUCCESS!!  Maximum Timeout for transactions is {0}", TransactionManager.MaximumTimeout.ToString()));
