Serialization failed on init function with deployed contract

Smart Contracts
1

Hey,

We have deployed a v1 smart contract to the testnet and create instances by calling our init function with a JSON parameter.

In this parameter we have a list of accounts. When calling the init function with a parameter including a list of accounts with more than 30 we get a Serialization failed error.

We do not get any errors when running with 30 or less accounts.

With more than 30 accounts the parameter JSON file gets above 2 kb. Is there some kind of limit on parameter size or something that might be causing this error?

Yes, there is a limit on parameter size. It is 1024 bytes (note that this applies to the binary serialization, the JSON representation is in general bigger).

This is something the client should warn you about, but it clearly does not, so I’ll make a bug report.

Alright, thanks for clarifying.

Is this something that will also be increased in the future or stay at ~1kb?

We have no immediate plans to change this although it is certainly possible it will change in the future.
