Running into an issue with uploading files to phoenix graphql server. Not sure how to go about increasing the file size limit on server.

I get this error on the frontend:

38%20PM
38%20PM950×48 10.6 KB

I attempted to increase limit in my app endpoint:

  plug Plug.Parsers,
    parsers: [:urlencoded, {:multipart, length: 20000000}, :json],
    query_string_length: 1000000,
    pass: ["*/*"],
    json_decoder: Phoenix.json_library()

Not sure what else to do, anybody with graphql absinthe file size configuration experience here?

Try to add length, at the end…

plug Plug.Parsers,
    parsers: [:urlencoded, {:multipart, length: 20000000}, :json],
    query_string_length: 1000000,
    pass: ["*/*"],
    json_decoder: Phoenix.json_library(),
    length: 100_000_000

Found out that it was because i did not set client_max_body_size 10M; in nginx.conf file. After doing so, error goes away.

Now i’m encountering a different error, 501 (not implemented). Not sure what is the cause of this, but it doesn’t hit my phoenix api.
