Storing and reading large http request responses

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 23
Hi everyone!
 
When handling bigger http requests responses I am getting a system error (which didn't helped identifying the issue). Any ideas/suggestions on how to handle such cases? From what I could find the limit for copilot studio in storing and processing answers is at 8.000 characters, and my http requests up until now could get to the ~79.000 characters.
 
Is there a way to crop the json response from the http request previous to storing it, it wouldn't be the best solution, but would serve as a workaround. 
 
 
Cheers!
 
Sebastian

    Storing and reading large http request responses
    Hello
     
    I avoid to manipulate "big" volume of datas inside copilot studio buffer, what i do is depending of the situation :
    - Power Automate to manipulate big volume
    - AI Builder to manipulate big JSON
    - Custom Web app call with custom connector when to complicated for low code to be handle and send only small data/json to copilot studio.
     
    hope this help :)

    Thanks for the tips!
     
    I'm unfamiliar with tools beyond copilot studio. Are they charged extra from the copilot studio license? Any guides/documentation you would recommend? I've tried using AI prompts from power apps, but they needed to be fed with the json directly, instead of the url resulting in the same problem of too large volume of data as before.
     
    My idea would be to identify the main information on the json and return it summarized to copilot studio.

    After exploring the listed options I concluded that none would work out:
     
    - Power automate HTTP request is locked behind a premium tag which my organization doesn't have access to.
    - AI Builder can manipulate the JSON after the http request answer is stored in a variable, which I can't do.
    - Using a external web app was discarted as an option by my manager.
