Increase file upload size? #1059

Description

@crestenstclair

Hey guys,

I'm currently trying to figure out how to increase the currently anemic 1mb file upload size limit, but I can't seem to find it in the documentation anywhere. Please advise!

Thanks a bunch!

    @jgeewax is this a limitation at the project level?

    Are you talking about Datastore ? Or Cloud Storage?

    For Datastore, there is a hard limit of 1 MB per entity. For Cloud Storage ... there certainly isn't a 1MB limit...

    It's cloud storage, and I remember reading somewhere that gcloud-node imposes this limit, not gcloud itself.

    Here is the error, I'm on version 0.27.0.

    error: "Bad Request"
    message: "Payload content length greater than maximum allowed: 1048576"

    Our code don't have any such limitation. I'm thinking this is occurring somewhere else in the stack -- is the file being uploaded through the browser? What other libraries are involved?
