The [ingest] section: the one bound on a data-plane request body.
Synopsis
[ingest]
max_payload_size = 1048576
Description
| Setting | Default | Env var | When to change |
|---|---|---|---|
ingest.max_payload_size | 1048576 | ORION_INGEST__MAX_PAYLOAD_SIZE | Raise for large request bodies on the data plane. The admin API has its own bound (server.max_admin_body_size), so raising this one does not widen the unauthenticated surface. |
