Resolution resolution

Solution
Follow the steps given below to resolve the issue:

  1. Browse to your configuration manager and edit the configuration for Apache Sling Get Servlet. For cloud environments, edit the configuration org.apache.sling.servlets.get.DefaultGetServlet.
  2. Increase the value for JSON Max Results. The count towards the JSON Limit is the number of all the children and grandchildren (resources) of the target folder. So, if the target folder is /a/b/c, then the count is all resources in /a/b/c and their children.
  3. Clear the browser cache.
  4. Retest the use case. A restart is not required.

It is recommended to limit the number of assets in a folder to 1000, as outlined in the below documents. There is no need to increase this number to more than 3000. As long as we comply with this recommendation, we should not experience any performance issues with this configuration.
