Setting a size limit for data import into a data set

Updated on May 17, 2024

When you import data into a data set, the maximum size of the import package is 100 MB by default. You can decrease this value to 1 MB or increase it up to 2047 MB.

  1. Modify the size limit for data import in one of the following ways:
    • To modify the prconfig.xml file, go to step 2.
    • To Create an instance of the dynamic system setting rule that overrides the size limit in the prconfig.xml file, go to step 3.
  2. Ask a system administrator to change the following setting in the prconfig.xml file:
    <env name="Initialization/MaximumFileUploadSizeMB" value="100" />, where value is the maximum size of the import package. The available range is from 1 to 2047.
  3. Create an instance of the dynamic system setting rule that overrides the size limit in the prconfig.xml file by performing the following actions:
    1. In Dev Studio, click Create SysAdminDynamic System Settings.
    2. Enter a short description. For example, MaxImportSizeDataSet.
    3. In the Owning Ruleset field, enter Pega-Engine.
    4. In the Setting Purpose field, enter prconfig/Initialization/MaximumFileUploadSizeMB/default.
    5. Click Create and open.
    6. In the Value field, enter the maximum size of the package that can be imported. The available range is from 1 to 2047.
    7. Click Save.
