Hi, please help me with the below queries
1. How can we check the maximum size limit we have for outbound REST Payload in our servicenow instance, is there any systme property with this value.
2. Is there any restriction at servicenow instance level for sending attachments through REST outbound integration?

Yes
"By default, the system limits the size of REST responses that are not saved as attachments to 5 MB. Direct REST responses that exceed this limit generate an error. To support larger response sizes, either save the response as an attachment or increase the response size limit with the glide.pf.rest.response_payload_max_size system property. This system property supports a maximum value of 10 MB."

Hi Pavan,
Does these values applicable for outbound scenarios as well?
