Hi, what page are you on when you are seeing that and what are you trying to do?

Entity Too Large comes from something in the network stopping the chain of data going to your browser. If there is a proxy in network that's partially responsible for handling the requests and responses, check the proxy logs about this error and look at the proxy configuration to see if there is a limit that can be increased.

I can see how that might be possible if your data has a large number of fields, or large field values in the documents.
