Hi everyone,

I am working with a large dataset (over 500,000 records) stored in PostGIS, which I am reading into FME and writing to ArcGIS Online (AGOL). My goal is to automate this process by publishing the FME Workbench to FME Flow, so the AGOL feature service updates every few hours.

When I overwrite the data, the Workbench runs without any issues. However, I want to truncate the existing data instead of overwriting it. When I attempt to do this, I encounter the following error:

413 Client Error: Request Entity Too Large

Occasionally, I receive other request size-related errors as well. I tried adjusting the Features Per Request parameter to 500, but the issue persists.

I’d like to ask if anyone has experienced this issue before and what possible solutions or workarounds exist to efficiently truncate and update the AGOL feature service without running into request size limitations.

Any insights or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

Hi ​@aawad.93, I think you’re on the right track, and I’d suggest reducing your Features Per Request even more to something like 100, 50, or even 10. It might slow down your workspace but it should help. Would you also be able to share what version of FME Form you’re using? Happy to help!
