Troubleshooting
Troubleshoot action request or response payload size
Testing action in Zap editor
Constraint
When a user clicks Test and Review or Retest and Review in the Zap editor, the response payload must be less than 20MB.Errors user will see if constraint is hit
- “Response payload size exceeded maximum allowed payload size”
Best practice
If your API endpoint supports request filtering, one option is to provide input fields in the action/search so a user can decide what record field data they want to return. If that is not available, you might look at having multiple endpoints for this record data. Your integration could then provide multiple action/searches for the user so they can get a full record.Action runs in a Zap
Constraint
An action/search input payload must be less than 6 MB.Errors user will see if constraint is hit
- “Invoke payload too large”
Best practice
Use the simplest available endpoint on your API for the basic record data, and use Zapier platform dehydration to request supplementary data from other endpoints. A dehydration pointer is created for each subsequent request, and this pointer will only be resolved if the Zap needs a hydrated property in a later step.Need help?
