I am trying to download a fairly large file (500MB) from an NodeJS API endpoint, but the following code appears times out with a 504 Gateway Timeout:

  async download(res: Response) {
    const path = `${this.EXCEL_SAVE_DIR}/report.xlsx`;
    try {
      if (fs.existsSync(path)) {
        res.download(path);
      } else {
        logger.debug(`download -> file not found at: ${path} `);
      }
    } catch (err) {
      logger.debug(`download -> error: ${JSON.stringify(err)}`);
    }
  }

Is it possible to avoid these timeouts?
