Hello @ Durdan

To configure a Response timeout value that's greater than 60 seconds, you must[ request a quota increase](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/servicequotas/latest/userguide/request-quota-increase.html). The default Response timeout value is 30 seconds.

Hi,

I haven't tried this myself. Override (https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/mobile/override-amplify-generated-backend-resources-using-cdk/) does not seem to support update of cloudfront configurations.

What you could look into is custom resources (https://docs.amplify.aws/cli/custom/cdk/). You could get a reference of Cloudfront distribution in CDK and then try to modify that.

Let me know if this works/is feasible.
