    If you're using .net 4.8, you should be able to use MaxRequestLength to increase the request size, assuming your app is hosted inside a Windows app service plan. For .netcore, there's a IISServerOptions that exposes a MaxRequestLength property.

    However, I would advise breaking the file up into pieces and streaming the bits to be more efficient.
