Chesnay Schepler commented on FLINK-8949: ----------------------------------------- Yes, increasing the header length is just a band-aid, and I kinda doubt that many users will even find it. [~vthinkxie] Would it be that difficult to change the UI to only request metrics in batches? > Rest API failure with long URL > ------------------------------ > > Key: FLINK-8949 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8949 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Runtime / REST, Runtime / Web Frontend > Affects Versions: 1.4.2, 1.5.0, 1.6.4, 1.7.2, 1.8.2 > Reporter: Truong Duc Kien > Assignee: Maximilian Michels > Priority: Major > Labels: pull-request-available > Time Spent: 10m > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > When you have jobs with high parallelism, the URL for a REST request can get > very long. When the URL is longer than 4096 bytes, the REST API will return > error > {{Failure: 404 Not Found}} > This can easily be seen in the Web UI, when Flink queries for the watermark > using the REST API: > {{GET > /jobs/:jobId/vertices/:vertexId/metrics?get=0.currentLowWatermark,1.currentLowWatermark,2.currentLo...}} > The request will fail with more than 170 subtasks and the watermark will not > be displayed in the Web UI. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
