Hey @telecoms-cosmonaut10, welcome to Postman Community.

By switching to the Desktop Agent (you’ll find the option in the bottom-right corner), I was able to bypass the initial “Error: Response header too large” issue.

Unfortunately, the request then returned a 404 Not Found error, so it seems the endpoint itself may no longer be valid or accessible.

Another workaround you could try is adding the following header at the collection level:

Accept-Encoding: application/gzip

That may help manage the size of the response headers more effectively.
