How many files can I upload at once?

There’s no strict limit on the number of files you can upload at once. However, we recommend uploading no more than 50 files or a total of 2 GB at a time, whichever comes first, for the smoothest upload experience.

Media Management Tips

  • File size limits: Ensure your files meet the platform’s maximum size requirements.
  • Format compatibility: Use supported formats for optimum playback quality.
  • Organization: Create folders or use categories to keep assets organized.
  • Naming: Use descriptive names so media is easy to find later.
