Variable | MAX_INGEST_REQUEST_SIZE | |
Introduced Version | 1.64 | |
Description | Size limit of ingest requests after content-encoding has been applied; expressed in bytes. | |
Default | 33,554,432 (32MB) |
This variable is used to set the default size limit of ingest requests after content-encoding has been applied.
The value is expressed in bytes.
The default value of 32 MB
limits the size of ingest
requests and rejects oversized requests. If the request is compressed
within HTTP, then this restricts the size after decompressing.
Alternatively, the default can be applied via the dynamic configuration
MaxIngestRequestSize
. The recommendation is to set this
size fairly low, such as 10 - 100 MB; however, be aware that doing so may
break existing integrations that rely on ingesting very large payloads.
Use the new request log field
decodedContentLength
to find what
range of sizes to expect for existing clusters.
