[Python] Why are the arrays in my request body being capped at 10 elements? – Sentry Help Center

Issue

I am capturing POST request bodies in my events. I notice that the arrays in the body are always capped at 10 elements.

Applies To

Python SDK users

Symptoms

Missing elements in the Array
JSON of the event shows the actual length of the array under the _meta key

Resolution

By default the SDK sets the max_request_body_size="medium" option when not explicitly provided in the SDK. This caps the number of elements based off of our MAX_DATABAG_BREADTH option defined here.

Adding the option max_request_body_size="always" will stop this behavior and allow any number of elements as long as they comply with other SDK or server side limits.
