Hitting max character length for AWS Eventbridge json payload

Question

I have a big json payload of around 12K characters. AWS Eventbridge is not letting me create event as there is a payload limit of 8192 characters. How would I resolve this?

Thanks

According to API doc, this is a hard limit on the API level. A workaround would be to split it into two targets.

Thanks for your reply. You mean create some filters to reduce json length and route it to 2 targets? – Ankur Shrivastava Jun 30 '21 at 14:56

Another way to handle larger payloads on Eventbridge would be to put the payload to S3 and pass a reference (bucket name + key) as the payload.
