Template may not exceed 1000000 bytes in size

Question

This error is blocking us from making any further changes to our API. We have a large schema and sometimes when we try to push it gives us the error Template may not exceed 1000000 bytes in size. So why did this error come apparently?

These are two GitHub issues as references:

1. Unable to push schema updates due to CloudFormation template size limit  #1453
2. Template may not exceed 1000000 bytes in size. amplify-cli#7680

Hi @Anirudhastikar, Thanks for raising this issue. I see that using the --minify option was suggested in issue #1453 as a potential solution. Have you already tried implementing that proposed --minify option but are still running into this error?

We met with the customer and determined they are reaching a hard limit set by AppSync. For anyone else that encounters this issue, AppSync is working to increase the limit for all customers. Please refer to this ticket for the status of that feature.

Hello @Anirudhastikar, did you managed to solve this issue? I am also facing this on my production and cannot release the new changes. The same deployment on staging env was a success

AppSync is starting to roll out the change that should resolve this.

@JeetTatva are you seeing the Template may not exceed 1000000 bytes in size error or is it the Maximum number of CloudFormation resources a nested stack can create, update, or delete per operation. error? #2432

@dpilch I get the Template may not exceed 1000000 bytes in size error

AppSync has released the change in all regions. @JeetTatva are you still experiencing the issue?

@dpilch I am using Gen 2 and I see this warning. Does this mean I can ignore it and I should be good?
