Hi ,

Can anyone confirm what is the minimum size for enabling streaming in Apigee X.  Docs it's just mentioned for large size data need to enable streaming and the Max Limit is <10MB. Streaming requests and responses  |  Apigee X  |  Google Cloud

I dunno. What's your concern here?

I don't know the specific section in the documentation that you're referring to here. It's not NEEDED to stream for large payloads. It's POSSIBLE. It may offer a way to improve performance, if you don't need the Proxy to modify or examine the request or response content.

This ask is to understand when to enable streaming ?

For example if the payload size is 5MB then enable streaming.

Streaming is required only if your request/response payload size is greater than 10MB.
