Appian Web Api Max Size

Question

I'm using a web API form Appian to insert documents from a Python project. While some documents are uploaded successfully, others return a "413 Payload Too Large" error. I&rsquo;ve already set the maximum request size to 1 GB in the Tomcat server configuration, but documents over 70 MB are still being rejected with the same error. How can I increase the maximum request size for the web API to allow larger uploads?

Hi hamzas0003 , Appian doesn't allow uploading files over 75mb.Therefore you cannot upload such huge files into the system.When the document is pushed into system, it will be converted into binary file, As the binary file size exceeds than some specified range, it exerts load on the Appian engines, leads to server down. 
 The client must send the document they wish to upload in a binary request body. If the document exceeds 75 MB , it will fail to upload and the web API will return a 413 Limit exceeded error. Otherwise, the document will be uploaded to the Save In folder specified. I hope this information helps you, please raise a support case for this issue, if you are using cloud, then it will be very quick to make updates for it.

Web API to upload a document into Appian has a size limitation of 75 MB. Not sure weather it can be altered.
