    There may well be some max limit, but in practical terms no there is not

    see

    https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos-connect/zos-connect/3.0?topic=overview-api-provider-devops

    describes how you need to code 

    webApplication for each OpenAPI3 war file you want to deploy

    Thanks Edward , i have couple of additional doubts 

    1. Since the api.war file is already created during z/OS Connect testing, do we need to run a Gradle build again before moving to production?
    2. What files are required for deployment on the z/OS Connect server? Is it just the WAR file and server.xml? Is this the same server.xml file used during designer testing?
    3. Is the WAR file environment-dependent? Do we need to update any configuration details in files such as server.xml or cics.xml when moving to production?
    4. Is the cics.xml file used only for the designer?
    5. How do we determine the correct folder on the z/OS Connect server to place the WAR file?
