Good day everyone, I wanted to ask what is the maximum size of document that UiPath can download. I have a project where I will be using an API to download an attachment from the response and into a system.
Hello @Anelisa_Bolosha1
When fetching documents via API, I imagine that you will have to define a “long enough” Timeout property on the Http Request activity for it to complete.
When writing “into a system” do you mean some UiPath Cloud storage of sorts or simply locally on the machine?

For now i suppose there is no hard limit in UiPath, but practical limits depend on memory and system configuration. Also, HTTP Request activity can fail with large responses if not streamed, so you can avoid loading entire file into memory. Additionally, some API servers may enforce size limits on attachments (typically around 50–100 MB), so it’s important to check the API documentation.
The api limits would be set at the api end..if it can send a huge file then UiPath can accept ..just make sure of timeout
Cheers
UiPath doesn’t have a fixed maximum file size for downloads; it depends on system memory and timeout settings. also, api servers often limit attachment sizes (usually 50–100 mb), so check their docs for exact limits.
If helpful, mark as solution. Happy automation with UiPath!
