Hello CryPlex ,
Could you please provide the following information so we can further assist you?
- What file size are you using? (our APIs only support up to 150mb)
- Are you seeing this with every file or only with specific files?
- Are you using an SDK/if so, please provide which SDK along with the version?
- What API App is making these requests?
Thanks,
Brad
>>What file size are you using? (our APIs only support up to 150mb)
Was this limit changed recently? Because we were uploading files bigger than 1Gb in 8Mb chunks just few days ago with no problems.
This problem started to appear few days ago.
>>Are you seeing this with every file or only with specific files?
We are uploading tar.gz archives. Can't tell if other file types have such problems.
>>Are you using an SDK/if so, please provide which SDK along with the version?
No SDK is being used.
>>What API App is making these requests?
That's our own application to create backups.

Thanks for following up. This file size limit has not changed recently. Uploading 1 Gb files in 8 Mb chunks is supported.
To clarify, are you still seeing this issue on new requests now? And if so, is this occurring on all such requests, or only some of them?
Also, if you can share a more specific date/time of when you first started seeing this, that may be helpful.
