How can we set limits for attachment size in Composer?

Applies To

Composer, Workflow

Solution

The attachment size uses default SharePoint settings maintained in SharePoint Central Administration and web.config as mentioned below.

1. On the SharePoint server, Go to 'Start > All Programs > Administrative Tools > SharePoint Central Administration > Application Management'. 
2. Under SharePoint Web Application Management, click 'Web application general settings’. 
3. On the Web Application General Settings page, choose the appropriate web application on which Winshuttle Forms is configured. 
4. Under Maximum upload size, type the file size which you want to upload and click on OK. The maximum is 2 GB. 
5. Open the web.config from 'C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\<Virtual Directory>' folder.
6. Put the proper limit here as well " <httpRuntime maxRequestLength="51200" requestValidationMode="2.0" />" 

Note : If the file being uploaded is greater than the size mentioned at either of the two places, the file upload would not take place.
