In general, how do I enforce a maximum POST body length for different endpoints and how do I enforce validations such as length, data type, charset, and invalid char check for individual fields..

Unfortunately, there is no built-in solution for limiting POST body length.

Hi Aleksei, is it something to be handled by using an additional webserver like NGINX? Or, is it something to be configured as part of Netty configuration?

[Aleksei Tirman [JB]]

I think that limit can be configured on both sides but for Nginx it would be easier.

Also, you can find a rough solution on the Ktor side here.
