System.CalloutException: Web service callout failed: String length exceeds maximum: 1000000

Hello everyone.

 

I need to call a Webservice with multiple files (base64 encoded).

 

As I don't like dealing with WSDL, I decided to create the following class

global class MyWSClass{
    webservice static Blob myWSMethod (List<Blob> inputs){
        return null;
    }
}

 After that, I clicked on "Generate WSDL" and cleaned it a little bit (remove all headers but SessionHeader) and save it.

 

Then, I tried to use that WSDL to generate the Class that will use the webservice (using WSDL2Apex) that generates the following prototype.

 

...
public String myWSMethod(String[] inputs) {
...

 

The webservice works fine as long as I don't send too much information.

If I send 3 files of 300k each, it throws the following exception 

 

"System.CalloutException: Web service callout failed: String length exceeds maximum: 1000000"

 

on the line that calls to WebServiceCallout.invoke().

 

As the only field that depends on the files I choose is request_x and the response, I tried to change them to Blob (one, the other and both), but it didn't work.

 

Any idea?

 

Thanks
