Answer 1

I think below may help you

var app = express();
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({limit: '50mb', extended: false}));
app.use(bodyParser.json({limit: '50mb'}));

Answer 2

Use Body Parser NPM : https://www.npmjs.com/package/body-parser

var bodyParser = require('body-parser');

 app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({
  extended: true,
  limit: '50mb',
  parameterLimit: 100000
  }))

 app.use(bodyParser.json({
  limit: '50mb',
  parameterLimit: 100000
 }))
