Change file size limit

About this task

The procedure guides you on how to change the file size limit in Domino REST API. The procedure addresses the 413 Request Entity Too Large error when trying to POST an attachment to the Domino REST API.

Procedure

  1. Create a JSON file using a text editor.
  2. Copy the JSON object to the JSON file.

    {
      "bodyHandler": {
        "uploadsDirectory": "keep-file-uploads.d",
        "bodyLimit": 10000000
      }
    }
    
  3. Change the value of the bodyLimit parameter to your preferred file size limit in bytes. In the example, the file size limit is set to 128 MB.

    {
      "bodyHandler": {
        "uploadsDirectory": "keep-file-uploads.d",
        "bodyLimit": 128000000
      }
    }  
    

    Tip

    You can set the value of the bodyLimit parameter to -1 to remove the file size limit.

  4. Save the JSON file in the keepconfig.d directory.

    Tip

    Use a filename for the JSON file that reveals its purpose. To learn more on how JSON files in keepconfig.d are processed, see Understanding configuration.

  5. Restart Domino REST API on all servers.
