    Maximum size of attachments in Infopath forms‏

    We made a form in Infopath and that's published in Sharepoint 2010 (Office 356). In Sharepoint 2010 we can find the form and fill it in. In this form we are also able to attach several attachments in there. As soon as we save the form, we receive an error that the size is too big and that it is not saved.  

    Question 1: How many separate attachments can be added via a Infopath form that is published on Sharepoint?

    Question 2: What is the maximum size that one attachment can be? And what is the maximum size of all the attachments together? Thanks in advance for your help!

    Hi Mara,

    Office 365 has been transitioned to SharePoint 2013 in the US. Are you saying it's still SharePoint 2010 in Europe?

    Office 365 is a very limited environment for InfoPath browser. Are you experiencing the issues int he browser or in the InfoPath filler?

    Have you tried to call Microsoft Support?

    SharePoint 2010 standalone environments do not have as many limitations and in general they can be worked around via Central Admin. Unfortunately, O365 does not give you central admin.

    There is no defined max attachment size. We have customers with large attachments in both browser and filler. There will be timeouts submitting if the bandwidth is low and/or if the image is very large.

    Good luck!

    Hi Patrick,

    Yes correct, we use Sharepoint 2010 in combination with Office 365.

    We get the issues in the browser itself when filling in the form in sharepoint and submitting it. The size of the .xsn file is 2MB, so that shouldn't be the issue. After adding more than 8.2MB we receive the errormessage that it cannot be uploaded since the filesize is too big.

    But when I understand you well, there is a possibility that Central Admin set the limitation to 8.2MB.
