Regarding request body length

[suhasini]

Hello Telerik,

 

I am using Fiddler tool for WebAPI testing. It is working fine but yesterday I faced one problem while sending long data in Request body. WebAPI allowing ArrayBytes data for images. Converted 22MB images into bytes and passing those bytes info as request. I observed that, unable to paste complete byte info into request body.

 

Is there any way to pass complete info using fiddler tool? Can you please help us.

Thanks in Advance.

Hello Suhasini Chandu,

 

I guess you are composing a request via the Composer and the issue appears when you try to paste the data into the request composer - is that correct assumption?

 

Could you please try doing the same via the new Fiddler Everywhere - the idea here is to see if the issue is related to a UI limitation (WinForms vs. Electron app). Meanwhile, I will try to reproduce this case on my side.

Hi Suhasini,

 

Fiddler has an option to upload a file as a request body (via the Upload File link in the top-right corner of the request body field). You could try to import your large request body from that option - it was working as expected on my side with ~16MB request body.

 

I've also can confirm that the Fiddler Everywhere is working as expected with even larger bodies. I've tested the Composer with approximately 25MB of base64 string, and I was able to send the request and receive the same size as a response.
