413 Request Entity Too Large
m
Ah, the delightful troubles of life, like running into a "413 Request Entity Too Large" error. To address this, here's what you can do: 1. Update Server Configuration: Adjust the settings on the server to allow larger request sizes. This will depend on your server type. For example: - Nginx: Add or update the
client_max_body_size
directive in your Nginx configuration file:
Copy code
nginx
     server {
       client_max_body_size 100M;  # set to desired size
     }
- Apache: Add or update the
LimitRequestBody
directive in the Apache configuration file:
Copy code
apache
     <Directory "/var/www/html">
       LimitRequestBody 104857600  # set to 100MB as an example
     </Directory>
2. Prefect Configuration: There might be more specific configurations related to Prefect: - Rate Limits: If the error is related to Prefect Cloud rate limits, refer to the Prefect Rate Limits documentation. Contact Prefect support to discuss adjustments if needed. 3. Optimize Payloads: If possible, reduce the size of requests being sent. This can involve optimizing the data or breaking it into smaller chunks. 4. Application Code: If the issue arises during a specific API call within your Prefect flows, consider implementing chunking mechanisms or data compression.
