I have this collection in my appwrite.json file that I want to push to the cloud instance. It's one of several collections.

But every time I push it with cli command, after a while I get this error:

TypeScript
✗ Error: 
 Stack Trace:

Error: Attribute creation timed out.

                {

                },
                {

                {
                    "key": "isOvertime",
                    "type": "boolean",

            "$permissions": [
                "read(\"users\")",
                "write(\"users\")",
                "update(\"users\")",
                "delete(\"users\")"
            ],
            "indexes": [
                { "$id": "idx_createdAt", "type": "key", "attributes": ["createdAt"] },
                { "$id": "idx_userId", "type": "key", "attributes": ["userId"] },
                { "$id": "idx_org_proj", "type": "key", "attributes": ["organizationId", "projectId"] },
                { "$id": "idx_clientId", "type": "key", "attributes": ["clientId"] }
            ],
            "enabled": true
        },
TL;DR
Appwrite CLI is timing out when trying to push a collection to the cloud instance. The error message indicates that the attribute creation process is taking too long. One possible solution is to increase the timeout settings for the CLI to allow it more time for the operation to complete successfully.
