Tines

When building out Python scripts in Tines, you may run into the following error message after executing the script action:

The script payload is too large to be processed. - Request must be smaller than 6291456 bytes for the InvokeFunction operation 

This error is caused by a platform limitation with AWS Lambda, the service we use to execute Python scripts that are built within your stories. The maximum size allowed for the invocation payload is 6MB.

🟢 <b>Solution: </b>We recommend reducing the size of your Python script, for example, by splitting it out into multiple actions.

Here are resources to help better understand the behavior surrounding the limitation:
