Transaction too large

[ruskid]

Hi, I am getting: "Transaction too large: 1283 > 1232" when minting an NFT with collectionAuthority

return await this.metaplex
      .nfts()
      .create({
        uri: input.jsonURL,
        name: input.name,
        isMutable: true,
        symbol: SYMBOL,
        sellerFeeBasisPoints: 0,
        creators,
        isCollection: false,
        maxSupply: toBigNumber(0), // prevent editions, prints etc

        payer: input.creators.minterSigner,
        mintAuthority: input.creators.AuthoritySigner,
        updateAuthority: input.creators.AuthoritySigner,
        tokenOwner: new PublicKey(input.creators.createdByPublicKey),

        // set and verify collection
        collection: new PublicKey(input.collection.collectionMintPublicKey),
        collectionAuthority: input.collection.collectionUpdateAuthority,
        collectionAuthorityIsDelegated: false,
      } as CreateNftInput)
      .run()

is the issue with RPC or Solana?

Hi there 👋

Are you running this on a local test validator that's using an old version of Solana?

They recently-ish increased the transaction size which allowed this SDK to provide more features within the same transaction.

[ruskid]

hey, thanks for your work!

It's not a Metaplex issue but a Solana limit. I removed some NFT creators and attributes to get the transaction lighter

[lorisleiva]

Is this happening with the latest version of Solana though?

I'm curious to know if the latest changes they did on the transaction limit is still going to cause some issues for the SDK.

[ruskid]

do you mean the version of @solana/web3.js? I am using ^1.44.0

[ruskid]

Oh, I just managed to get the version of Solana from the Alchemy node. it's "solana-core":"1.10.34"

[lorisleiva]

Ah okay, thanks for that. Unfortunately, they already bumped the tx size on that version so looks like we've got to be careful on the SDK with this operation.

Instead of changing the creator array, I'd suggest removing the collectionAuthority and collectionAuthorityIsDelegated parameters so that the transaction doesn't include the instruction that verifies the collection.

You can then use metaplex.nfts().verifyCollection(...).run() to achieve this in a different transaction.

Hi there 👋

I'm going to close this since it seems like you fixed your issue by splitting your transaction but feel free to open a new issue with updated information if you need to.

Thanks for raising this.
