this log is seen every 1 hour, what does it mean? who is doing this API call with all those params?

I am assuming you are performing ManagedObject lookup with a list of ‘ids’ ([Cumulocity - OpenAPI](https://cumulocity.com/api/core/#operation/getManagedObjectCollectionResource)) . The error in this case indicates that the query param (GET /inventory/managedObjects?ids=a,b,c,…) exceeds the maximum allowed length by Cumulocity.

If you are trying to lookup a large number of managed objects, I would recommend breaking the request in to multiple smaller requests so that you don’t run in to such limits.

> [@Sandeep\_Komarneni](#):

> GET /inventory/managedObjects

the only thing which is close to this one is the following GET in a python middleware which happens daily (not hourly) and the URL is as followed:

url = “[https://emea.cumulocity.com/inventory/managedObjects?type=c8y\_MQTTdevice&pageSize=500](https://emea.cumulocity.com/inventory/managedObjects?type=c8y_MQTTdevice&pageSize=500)”

so it shouldn’t be related to the error seen, can we know which user is generating this API request or from which IP somehow?

Our monitoring shows that you have 6 EPL Apps, can you check if any of those EPL apps are using ‘ids’ in the query parameters for FindManagedObject request or GenericRequest ?
