We have been successfully using the Azure KUDU API to upload data directly to our Umbraco website (without using Umbraco backoffice).
More specifically we use the API zip endpoint to do this.
But as our data package has grown to app. 600MB, we now face an error:
"413 Request Entity Too Large cloudflare"
Data packages size of 300MB has worked fine in the past, so I believe the limitation is somewhere between 300-600MB.
I don't think this is a limitation in the API, but rather a limit that is enforced by Cloudflare/Microsoft. So it's really not an Umbraco problem either.
Does anyone here know if this limit can be changed, or does anyone have a better method of uploading "large" data packages ?
As a workaround we have chosen to split our zip file into parts of 200MB chunks instead. This allows us to use the api/zip function without hitting the limit.

Hi Huw,
Thanks for the link, that makes sense.
