Hello, I am using digital ocean app platform and I have an API which uploads large files (can exceed 700 MB), but I have a response with Entity is too large 413 status error. Is it possible to modify this to accept large files?
I am using FastAPI framework and uvicorn as a web server.

Hello, @agamaleldin
I believe the same question was asked before in our community. Please check this question and the answer from kamaln7

"PHP applications on App Platform use PHP-FPM in conjunction with Apache (or Nginx if you choose to use it)—the webserver would accept all incoming requests, and forward PHP requests to PHP-FPM which actually executes them. You’ll want to increase the max upload size there. You can do that by adding a
.user.inifile at the root of your app’s document root (in the same directory where you would put an.htaccessfile. Usually this will be thepublicdirectory) with something like this:post_max_sizecontrols the maximum POST requests body size, whileupload_max_filesizecontrols the maximum allowed size of a single file in an upload request.For more info, you can refer to the Heroku PHP Buildpack documentation. Let me know if that works!"
