Is there an option to extend the captcha response timeout from default 2 mins to say 5 mins?

There are some sections of my form that may take longer than 2 mintues to complete and I have a captcha challenge just before those sections and by the time user completes those sections, the verified captcha is expired and user has to complete the captcha challenge again, which is not a good experience. Any suggestions for a quick solution?

Thanks.

I would like to bump this request... my clients' forms are also running into expired reCaptcha v2 forms on complicated forms that take numerous minutes to fill out (file updloads, numerous partners' contact fieldsets, etc.). Does anyone know of an API option to extend the expiration timestamp?

Thanks

I've only used reCAPTCHA just before the user submits a form so 'Verification expired." is not an issue.  How are you using it?

I'm running into the same issue.  Have you found a solution to this?  I'm using this for a large number of file uploads, so they take a while and this ends up timing out pretty often on them.

Thank you,
Travis
