Response size too big. Maximum allowed response size: 7340032b

Expected Behavior

Calling client.getEntries should get all of my data.

Actual Behavior

I’m getting this error message Response size too big. Maximum allowed response size: 7340032b.

Possible Solution

Here’s my config when calling the getEntries function await client.getEntries({content_type: 'xxxx', include: 3}); I know that the include:3 causes it to make the response size too big but we have some functions where we need our data all at once. I could have set a first or skip here but it is not an option right now

It would be nice if there’s a way to override the maximum allowed response size

Steps to Reproduce

Just have a large set of data without any filtering or pagination.

Context

When we were starting with Contentful 6 months ago, we only had a few data so this was not an issue. We’re using Hugo to generate our web pages and we generate the md and json files using Contentful.

thanks @Khaledgarbaya . My workaround is something like this

  const data1 = await client.getEntries({ content_type: 'xxxx', include: 3, limit: 10 });
  const data2 = await client.getEntries({ content_type: 'xxxx', include: 3, skip: 10 });
  const allData = {};
  allData.items = [...data1.items, ...data2.items];

for anyone looking into this in the future, it might be due to contentful technical limits.
