## Maximum File Size Limits

Filebase supports file uploads up to 1 TB in size.

Any file larger than 5GB should be uploaded using the S3-compatible API to benefit from Multipart Upload. For large IPFS folders, we also suggest [re-pinning CIDs](https://docs.filebase.com/ipfs-concepts/what-is-ipfs-pinning#uploading-a-folder-to-ipfs-using-ipfs-desktop-then-pinning-it-using-filebase) for a more reliable experience.
