Limits on file attachments to Objects (size or quantity)

Hi, there!

When adding a file attachment property to an Object, are there limits on any of the following?

  • the size of individual files attached
  • the number of files that can be attached to a single Object (either through separate properties or through an array of file attachments)
  • the cumulative file size across all attached files

Thank you!

I had a different, but related, issue in a datasource cleaning project. I had 1M+ PDFs in a dataset from a source that I didn’t have permission to edit, and after unsuccessfully trying to convert it to a media set, Palantir informed me that some of the media set functions had an undocumented limit of 10,000 PDFs.

@dev Mediaset have a limit of 10k items only in batch mode. They don’t have a limit in stream mode.

For attachments, the limits are documented there.
As of August 2024: 200 MB, one attachment can be linked to 10 objects in its lifetime. Attachments not linked to objects are eventually automatically deleted.

To clarify, is the 200 MB size limit per attachment? Or is that a total cap across all attachments linked to an object?

Is there a limit to the number of attachments a single object can have? (the converse of the 10 object link limit mentioned in the docs)
