API Error Response Change for Large Loan Sizes in 25.1 R2T

With the scheduled R2T release of Encompass 25.1 on February 15, 2025, ICE will be implementing a temporary change to API error responses for large loan sizes exceeding 6 MB in the 25.1 R2T environment. This change will affect API customers that test their Encompass integrations in the 25.1 R2T environment and are testing API calls that require creating or opening of a loan file exceeding 6 MB (e.g., POST loan, GET loan, PATCH loan). This only impacts R2T and will not impact your 25.1 production environment.

Upcoming Change in 25.1 R2T Environment

  • Previously with API testing of a loan size larger than 6 MB, the following error was received: “400 Bad Request
  • In 25.1 R2T, the error that will now appear for loan sizes larger than 6 MB will be “500 Internal Server Error” with a detailed error message specifying the issue. An example of the error message follows:
{  
  "summary": "Internal Server Error",  
  "details": "Cannot open file '{fe3fc50f-117e-4909-8498-711f63b40e96}' because it is too large, Please contact your system administrator."  
}

This change is temporary and will help ICE optimize large loan size handling. Error messaging will return to “400 Bad Request” with the 25.2 R2T release.

Actions Recommended

  • Please familiarize yourself with this upcoming change.
  • Use multiple loans to test production-like scenarios - avoid excessive testing of the same loan file.

Thank you for your attention to this important testing detail.
