It sounds like we need to do some re-architecting to support uploading larger file sizes, I don't think I tested with such large files, and we weren't sure what users would expect to upload. I'll tackle this when I can, but the next few weeks are a bit busy, so if others take this on, PRs welcome.

Hi @pamelafox, has any changes been done to support uploading larger files? Are there any workarounds to the limitations of the data ingestion?

[brainlie]

bump @pamelafox! I have tried to manually hardcode the max file size in the code, but am getting issues with the timeouts. I have tried changing the timeout settings in the code and also using azure application gateway but it seems to not be working. Any other ideas?

I was able to fix this by just adding the code line at my app.py file. I've tested it with 5MB limit and now scaled up to 20MB. Both is working like a charm. This should fix the problem of User file upload limits.

def create_app():
app = Quart(name)
app.config['MAX_CONTENT_LENGTH'] = 20 * 1024 * 1024 # 10MB limit # Set the maximum upload size to 20MB (or whatever size you want)
app.register_blueprint(bp)

[v-oshirke]

Go to app> backend> app.py
In the function def create_app():
add this line -app.config['MAX_CONTENT_LENGTH'] = 20 * 1024 * 1024

(u can set the size by of your choice by changing the 20 input)
I tried uploaded 100mb file and it was working for me
