I want to use over 1MB file in File System service with On-Premises data gateway.

and want to use the File contect in below actions.

 

My scenario:

scenario 1: Upload the File to specific OneDrive for Business.

scenario 2: Send a mail attemped the File.

 

I success 10KB txt files, 25KB png files,

But I failed in 176KB PowerPoint pptx file.

 

Message is in Japanese. "HTTP 要求に失敗しました。タイムアウトに達しました。"

Message mean "Failed HTTP request, because Timeout."

    Across all Flow connectors and services, the file size limits for uploading & downloading content is 50 MB, and the timeout for uploading & downloading is 90 [s]. Neither of the values are configurable today.

     

    However, in the next few months, we plan on incresing the limits to much larger values and making them configurable.

     

    Given that, it should not be timing out for a 176 KB file. Could you please share the URL of the page when you are looking at the debug view / history? We can use the information from that to pull the logs on our side.

    Thank you, @clamanna for your quick information.

     

    File size limit = 50 MB.

    Timeout uploading/downloading = 90 sec.

    Configuration file size limit, timeout = Current - No, Plan - Next few months.

     

    I wait few month for configuration setting.

    and I hope the debug information for file size and time in each my flows.

    Is there any update on when the file size limit increase will occur?

    The limit has been increased to 100 MB maximum for a single message/file, pending support by individual connectors / systems (e.g. if the service Flow connects to only supports 5 MB, then that is the maximum limit for that service..however, Flow itself imposes the 100 MB limit, so even if the service supports 1 TB, only a 100 MB message/file can be used).

     

    A notable improvement is that the File system connector, through the on-premises data gateway, has had its limit increased from 2 MB to 20 MB recently. We also will be increasing FTP and Azure Blob to 1 GB+ in the next month or so, and plan on increasing File System to 1 GB as well by the end of the year.

    Hi Clamanna

     

    As you have mentioned, does File System Supports 1 GB now with On-Premises data gateway?

    Because my flow is getting failed while extracting the archive to folder when the file size is over 20MB.

    30 MB is the limit at the moment. The 1 GB support discussed earlier in this thread has not been implemented. There is also a user voice request for this here:

    Hi !


    I got a similiar problem, 

    When I move files bigger than 2Mb,  Flow splits file into 2 with same name in target folder?

    Are there any options that creates that error?  

     

  • daviburg Profile Picture

    It appears that chunking is in effect. Chunking splits large files for transport to avoid timeout of individual calls to the On-Premises Data Gateway. At the completion of the calls it should put back the file together. Has the full file move operation completed?

    Also, you do have the option to open a free support ticket for your issue on the Azure Portal to get a customer support engineer to assist you until resolution of your problem.

    Yes the file is complete but splited in Two almost identical names. Original are3.2MB. Split become 2048kB in first rest in last.
    I got a service to take hare of it in Target folder that fails, due to the first XML has no ending. And the last no beginning.
