Target of com.glide.attachment.max_size

If I specify 1024MB for com.glide.attachment.max_size, can I upload files up to 1024MB per record?
Or can I upload files up to 1024MB per file?
In the latter case, I understand that it is possible to attach two 1024MB files to one record.
I would appreciate any help from someone with knowledge of this. Thank you in advance.

Hi @MiY 

When you say the size is 1024 MB, it means you can upload any number of files, but the total combined size should not exceed 1024 MB.

@MiY 

it's per file/attachment and not the total size for all attachments on a record.

So it means you can add more than multiple files each up to 1024MB to same record

Note: Remember increasing that property has below risk as per docs

Property com.glide.attachment.max_size is the maximum file size that can be attached in a record.

 

For example, I have configured 5MB as the maximum size in PDI and when I try to upload any file more than 5MB, system will not allow it.

However you can add multiple files to a record, for example below files are 2 MB, 4 MB and 3 MB in size.
