Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/hoppscotch/hoppscotch/issues/4139

Is there an existing issue for this?

  • I have searched the existing issues

Summary

My current issue, while switching form postman to hoppscotch is, that i have to import my collection and the json, which contains my collection exceeds the defined 10MB in the code.
Error: file_size_limit_exceeded_warning_single_file
File and line: packages\hoppscotch-common\src\components\importExport\ImportExportSteps\FileImport.vue:43
Firmly programmed 10MB: packages\hoppscotch-common\src\components\importExport\ImportExportSteps\FileImport.vue:70

Why should this be worked on?

This feature should be implemented, because many companys use quiet big collections.

Our postman file is 24MB. We have hosted the hoppscotch community edition today. And, when we try to import the file, it says failure due to the 10MB limit.

I have went through the admin portal to see if there is any config there. I checked the env as well to see if there is anything there.

Is there a workaround for this?

We really loved hoppscotch and we really want to switch from postman but if we cannot import its not possible. Please help us here.

@ahsanaasim @SaschaZehringer guys did you find any solution for this ? We are also transitioning from postman to hoppscotch and this is blocking now. Please let me know if there is any workaround as this is one time activity.

@SaschaZehringer thanks for the reply. Also how did you migrated your collections from postman to hoppscotch in best possible way ? We have 400+ collections in different workspaces, exporting them one by one from postman and then importing in hoppscotch is bit tedious. One workaround I found is using postman apis to get data and store the collection wise json files in local, I can download the files, but when importing them in hoppscotch I get this error - format not recognized, I understand the same error comes in case of file size limit exceeded but here even smaller files having this issue. When I manually export from postman and import it works. I tried to see the difference between the files exported by two methods - manual and using postman apis I can see api one have extra fiels inside every item -> either 'uid' or 'id' is present, also _exporter_id, _collection_link these fields are missing which are there in manually exported json file. Did you also faced same issues while migrating ?? Can you suggest some ways to fast pace this.

@ankitgirase Well, we only have like 3 collections and some environments (like 10 or so). So this wasn't a problem for us. I'm sorry. I can't help you here.
