            Import Limits

            Limits for importing data depend on the type of record.

            You can import data from ACT!, Outlook, and any program that can save data in the CSV (comma-separated values) format, such as Excel or GoldMine.

            		 You can’t import these records via the Data Import Wizard.
            • Your import file can be up to 100 MB, but each record in your file can’t exceed 400 KB, which is about 4,000 characters. To determine how many fields you can import, use this formula: 4,000 / (average number of characters in an API field name * 2). For example, if your average field character length is 40, you can import approximately 50 fields.
            • You can import up to 90 fields per record.
            • Each imported note and each imported description can’t exceed 32 KB. Text longer than 32 KB is truncated.
            • Other Bulk API limits apply. If you have missing records or truncated fields due to limits, see Bulk API Limits in the Bulk API 2.0 and Bulk API Developer Guide.

            Assets, cases, campaigns, contracts, documents, opportunities, and products can’t be imported via import wizards.
