1) Give a description of the problem
I recently completed a somewhat complicated piston which worked for a few weeks and then stopped firing. Trying to investigate, I went to the webcore dashboard but the piston would not load. I found other posts with similar issues and found the likely culprit; an error stating that "State cannot be greater than 1000000.0 characters:
I have attempted to duplicate the piston with the backup code but it is created empty.
I suspect I am writing the result of a REST call to a variable (and maybe other places) and this is causing the variable “overload”.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
2) What is the expected behavior?
Piston to load and fire
3) What is happening/not happening?
Piston is not firing, ST shows activity with the device, piston will not load
**4) Post a Green Snapshot of the piston![image|45x37]E)
Not possible
**5) Attach any logs (From [ST IDE](https://graph-na02-
