Hi Appian Gurus,

When I try to upload a file with more than 30 MB, I am getting this Appian inbuilt validation message which is totally misleading is it possbile to customize or edit this validation message in Appian On Prem environment.

On Prem environment:
The validation message text cannot be directly modified because it is part of Appian's core validation system. The 30MB limit and its corresponding validation message are hardcoded into the platform's file upload components.
To adjust the maximum file upload size, you can modify the following system property:
In Configuring System Properties([APPIAN_HOME]/server/conf/server.properties) -> appian.upload.max.size -> Change to whatever you want.

I would recommend -> Use a document check rule before processing

How would a system validate a file before it's uploaded?

You can mofify the file size that can be uploaded, but not the message itself.
