Describe the problem/error/question
Sometimes, I get the error “Bad request - please check your parameters
Bad Request: message is too long” eventhough my workflow works most of times. I get this same error at the same Telegram “send text” node every now and then, eventhough the message is not long. For example, this error occured with a simple one sentence. How can I resolve this and prevent this error in the future in order to have a consistent working workflow
What is the error message (if any)?
Bad request - please check your parameters
Bad Request: message is too long
Please share your workflow
