Flow wont let me implement chunking

Hoping someone can assist with this issue. I have been searching for a solution but so far have come up empty. I have a very basic flow setup. I have installed the data gateway on a machine and setup a connector for a specific folder so I can access the file share from power automate. My flow looks for a file that is created in the file share, gets the content of the file and uploads it to SharePoint. Everything works great but I am running into an issue where if the file is too large the second step is failing. Here are some screenshots of the error.

It says the file is larger than the limit of 30mb. I came across some articles online that says I need to add chunking so it can process larger files. I went under the settings and added the chunking options in settings but when I save it gives me errors and freezes the screen where I have to refresh the page to be able to edit anything. Is chunking an option anymore or is there another way to get around this that I have not found yet?

    Hello @Jonathane1 

     

    You reached the limit of the file system connector. File System - Connectors | Microsoft Learn

     

    You can try to workaround this by (for example) write your own connector, zip the file or store it somewhere else so you could use other connectors.
