payload_too_large

413 Content Too Large   The request payload is larger than this endpoint accepts.

When you get it

The request payload is larger than this endpoint accepts. It is always answered with HTTP 413 - one code means one status, so a client may key its handling on either.

Fields it carries

Inside each errors[] entry, beside pointer:

limit
The cap this operation enforces.
actual
The value the server actually observed.

A field is omitted when the server genuinely does not know it - an absent member is never the same as an empty one.

How to fix it

The payload is larger than this endpoint accepts. Split it into smaller requests.
