REQUEST_TOO_LARGE
What it means. The request carried more than 1 MB, which is more than an app can be sent in one request.
What to do. Upload files straight to the app's storage instead of posting them to the app: ask the platform for an upload link (POST /_platform/upload-url) and send the file there. That route answers somebody the app knows — a signed-in visitor, the owner, or an api-kind app's key — so in a public app the upload has to be made by the app's own server code, using UARPIE_STORAGE_BUCKET and UARPIE_STORAGE_PREFIX. Forms and other posts must stay under 1 MB.
- HTTP status: 413
