WS_E_QUOTA_EXCEEDED

WS_E_QUOTA_EXCEEDED is a Windows Web Services API HRESULT. It means that completing the operation would exceed a limit such as message size, reader depth, array length, buffer size, concurrent work, or another configured quota.

What to check

Identify the specific object quota and the actual message, buffer or collection size that exceeded it.
Set limits that fit the expected workload while keeping resource exhaustion and malicious input in mind.
Prefer streaming, pagination or request splitting over removing limits without analysis.
