holdit - you had a very large base64 encoded value in a tag and then you posted it as a query parm instead?

 

Surprised that worked with the length of the base64 value - it looked like it was close to the URL char limit - but it from what you've explained, it sounds like your endpoint would only allow types of multiform-urlencoded rather than application/xml to begin with....

 

glad you sorted!
