Question

Hello,
Publisher domain verification failed with the following message:
Verification of publisher domain failed. The json file located at https://www.abc.com/.well-known/microsoft-identity-association is too large. [UTYFyLUstz3/AVHkHP9N9U]

The JSON file was downloaded from Azure and then uploaded to https://www.abc.com/.well-known/microsoft-identity-association.
The Content-Type field returned by the file server is: application/json.
The Content-Length field returned by the file server reflects the JSON file size 111 bytes.
There is no HTTP redirect.

This is the error presented when using DEV tools on Azure.
{error: {code: "Application_JsonFileTooLarge",…}}
error: {code: "Application_JsonFileTooLarge",…}
code: "Application_JsonFileTooLarge"
innerError: {date: "2022-06-21T05:20:13", request-id: "31a23c15-6bbf-446a-ba5a-c81050b30d2a",…}
message: "The JSON file located at www.abc.com/.well-known/microsoft-identity-association.json is over the size limit of 4096 bytes."

How can we resolve the issue?
Thanks,

Answer 1

Hi @Biton, Shlomi (Shlomi) , what does the JSON file contain? Did you create it or download it from somewhere? Is the entire JSON file only 111 bytes? Please let me know and I can help you further.

Best,
James

HI @James Hamil

I too am facing the same error

My json contains below:
{
"associatedApplications":[
{
"applicationId": "xxxxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxxx"
},
{
"applicationId": "xxxxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxxx"
}
.
.
.
{
"applicationId": "xxxxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxxx"
}

]

}

I have 57 applicationID in the json file

Is there any file size limit for the json to be uploaded ?

Answer 3

Any update about that?
I'm facing this same error message, which looks poor about why it's happening.

That content is very light. This error doesn't make sense 🙃

{
  "associatedApplications": [
    {
      "applicationId": "<UUID HERE>"
    }
  ]
}
