    Posted 05/09/24 05:03 PM

    Hello, 

       Is there a limit on how many excel files we can add as external data ? How do we increase this limit ? 

    Please and Thanks,

    Hi Harika,

    You might want to import just one ZIP file with many .xlsx files inside.

    Warning: You cannot replace a subset of files that were uploaded as a single .zip file. The whole .zip file must be replaced.

    You will find the requirement for size limits in here: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/cognos-analytics/12.0.0?topic=uf-requirements-uploaded-files

    Best regards,
