Hi,

I'm trying to import into Kibana a file created by using the export endpoint where I backup every object saved in a specific space including everything available (dashboards, index-patterns, visualizations, etc etc.) but when I make the POST request I get a response with the message: **{"statusCode": 413, "error": "Request Entity Too Large", "message": "Payload content length greater than maximum allowed: 10485760"}**

Is there a way I can make multiple requests in order to import everything ?

Thanks in advance!

You might increase allowed payload size setting `savedObjects.maxImportPayloadBytes` in `kibana.yml` [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.x/dashboard-import-api.html#dashboard-api-import-request-body](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.x/dashboard-import-api.html#dashboard-api-import-request-body)  
That would allow you to import everything in a single request.
