            • The .zip file can’t exceed 20 MB and the individual, uncompressed, files within the zip file can’t exceed 10 MB.
            • .csv files can’t have more than 10,000 rows, including the header row. Therefore, you can have a maximum of 9,999 articles and translations.

            • .csv file cells can’t exceed 32 KB.

If this option isn’t selected, your .csv file can’t contain the isMasterLanguage, but it must contain the Title column. The Language column is optional when importing articles without translations.
