# What payload size and timeout limits should we configure on the proxy for Ketryx<->JDC integration flows?

The nginx default request body limit of 1 MB is too small for some integration payloads, and the default 60s send/read timeouts can cut off longer sync operations before they finish. Here's what we recommend setting on the proxy:

- `client_max_body_size` **:** raise from the 1 MB default to **10 MB**, so larger payloads aren't rejected
- **Send timeout:** raise to **5 minutes** (up from 60s)
- **Read timeout:** raise to **5 minutes** (up from 60s)
- **Connect timeout:** the existing **30s** is fine, no change needed

With those in place, the proxy will comfortably handle the integration's payload sizes and the duration longer operations need to complete.
