> ℹ️ This method is to be used when a client request to increase the file upload limit for front-end upload.

This can be done by updating** web.config** file of admin application.

The changes need to be applied on these two parameters named as "**maxAllowedContentLength**" (in the <requestLimits> element) and "**maxRequestLength**" in the <httpRuntime> element). These config values now by default exist in **4.1.10** release. Update their value based on the required file size.

Also need to make sure that "**FileUploadTimeLimitSec**" system config option exists in the database, otherwise will throw timeout exception. Update **FileUploadTimeLimitSec **value in **systemConfig **table to have a default of <span style="color: #ff5630">**3600.**</span>
