HOW TO FIX "413 Payload too large" in NodeJS (Express)

413-payload-too-large-fix.js

const express = require('express');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');

...

// Express 4.0
app.use(bodyParser.json({ limit: '10mb' }));
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true, limit: '10mb' }));

// Express 3.0
app.use(express.json({ limit: '10mb' }));
app.use(express.urlencoded({ limit: '10mb' }));

...

I had this in my code:
app.use(express.json());
and I couldn't figure out why it didn't work then I tried this specific order:
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
app.use(bodyParser.json({ limit: '10mb' }));
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true, limit: '10mb' }));
app.use(express.json());
and now it works.
why?

i have the same problem

FYI:
you have to put those lines before
app.use(express.json());

Why it's still says payload is too large??

app.use(bodyParser.json({ limit: "1024mb" }));
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true, limit: "1024mb" }));
app.use(express.json({ limit: "1024mb" }));

Note: I'm using Quill Rich Editor and uploading images.
