Large File upload to ASP.NET Core 3.0 Web API fails due to Request Body to Large
Currently, as of 11/2019, there is a limitation with the Azure App Service for Linux. It's CORS functionality is enabled by default and cannot be disabled AND it has a file size limitation that doesn't appear to get overridden by any of the published Kestrel configurations. The solution is to move the Web API app to a Azure App Service for Windows and it works as expected.
I am sure there is some way to get around it if you know the magic combination of configurations, server settings, and CLI commands but I need to move on with development.
