# Request Entity Too Large

> The request payload is too large

## Cause

The request payload exceeds the maximum size limit allowed by the server.

## Fix

Reduce the size of the request payload or split it into multiple smaller requests, then call the same operation again.

## Retry safety

Not retryable until the underlying state or request changes.

## Raised by

These operations can return this problem:

* [Upload a photo](/api-reference/photos/upload-a-photo)

## Example

```json theme={null}
{
  "type": "https://docs.guile.app/problems/requestEntityTooLarge",
  "title": "Request Entity Too Large",
  "status": 413,
  "detail": "The request payload exceeds the maximum size limit allowed by the server."
}
