want to add a user to MongoDB with a profile picture as base64, username, and password but when I send the request with username and password it works because I don't require a profile picture but when I send it with the picture the problem below appears

When I try to post a request with the username & password only it worked and gets saved in MongoDB but when I add an image using Filebase64 this error appears in the console when I send

I try to add bodyParser.urlencoded and add CORS but nothing help

this is Sign Up hook: I also try to add cors: 'no-cors' to the request but change nothing

in terminal I get PayloadTooLargeError: request entity too large only when send the image without it every thing work perfectly

The backend is telling you the file you're uploading is too large. – Evert Nov 05 '22 at 00:13
yes that's clear from the message I get, is there any solution I try raising the limit to a bigger value but nothing helps – Ibrahim Yahyaoui Nov 05 '22 at 07:36
how big is the file you're trying to upload? – Evert Nov 05 '22 at 19:26
200kb less than the limit – Ibrahim Yahyaoui Nov 06 '22 at 23:03
Base64 encoding is inefficient and blows up the size. Try doubling the limit and see if that works. – Evert Nov 07 '22 at 00:50
