Your dashboard is too large. Please reduce the size before save it.

Expected results

Dashboard should allow to add the new charts and resizing the charts after clicking save button.

Actual results:

I have an existing dashboard created and contains some charts. Now, I’m trying to add the new charts to it. Dashboard is not allowing me to save after adding the new charts. Instead, it shows a pop up as shown in below screenshot.

@Kingflyinger FYI, you can modify that parameter in your superset_config.py. The default value is set based on the maximum size of the TEXT column type in an old MySQL version: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6766781/maximum-length-for-mysql-type-text#:~:text=TEXT is a string data,maximum length of 4%2C294%2C967%2C295 characters. For Postgres or a newer version of MySQL I believe this is around 1Gb, so you can safely add a few zeros to the current default value which is 65535.

thank you for your information, I searched DB storage and found nothing. happy to know I can just add zeros
