How to handle FE requests > 1MB?

Hi all,

I am sending some large polygons from my frontend for evaluation in the backend but when they get big I get the error message 413 "Body exceeded 1mb limit"

I have read I should be adding the configuration:

api: {
bodyParser: {
sizeLimit: "5mb",
},
},

but when I add it to the api.ts in the utils folder I don't see any difference. What is the proper way to increase this limit of how much I could send from my frontend to my NextJs backend?
