Hi all,
We added/configured an API in Tyk. We noticed that if the response body is greater than a certain value (around 30MB) it already throws a 502 Gateway Error. However, when we call the API directly (not thru Tyk), we are receiving the response just fine. I was wondering if there is any configuration we need to do and what is the default max response body size configuration.
We already made the configurations per this document:https://tyk.io/docs/troubleshooting/tyk-gateway/502-error-tyk-gateway/#description
Thanks in advance.

I tried with a 36MB JSON file and that worked fine. Do you mind sharing the gateway version, gateway config, headers and file type (binary or otherwise) you are using?
You can share it on the thread or send me a private message if you wish
Hi @Olu ,
I’ve sent you a private message.
Thank you!

Thanks for sharing the info. I sent you a private message a couple of days ago but haven’t gotten your response. I’ll post it again here in case it becomes useful in future.
I used the same gateway version (3.2) and config file (with a few tweaks) and could not reproduce the issue. Can you also share the API definition file?
One more thing that could be useful is the gateway logs in debug mode. You can enable it via the environment variables TYK_GW_LOGLEVEL=debug . I have dropped a sample of what we might be looking for in the debug logs. The logs below shows the start of the API call till the end.

Hi, on this topic, is there any maximum response body size that the gateway can handle?

Last I checked, I tested with almost a gigabyte file size of response and it still handled it. Would you mind sharing the issue you are experiencing?
