QUESTION
How do I send payloads larger than 1MB to HTTP webhook log sources in Panther?
ANSWER
Panther’s HTTP webhook has a 1MB size limit because the data goes straight to processing systems that cannot handle larger payloads. To work around this and send larger data efficiently, you can:
Instead of sending data directly to the webhook, send it to a cloud storage service like Amazon S3 bucket. This allows Panther to handle bigger files and break them into smaller parts for processing.
Configure Fluent Bit to send your data to S3. For an example configuration, check out the Panther documentation.
