The File Upload element allows you to accept file uploads from your respondents. You can configure the allowed file size if you need to receive large files or save storage space by limiting your form to accept small files only.
To use File Upload and change the allowed file size
- In the Form Builder, select Add Form Element in the upper-left corner.
- In the left pane, select File Upload.
- Open File Upload properties, then go to Options at the top.
- Turn on Limit File Size and enter your desired limits.
Notes
- The maximum individual file size allowed in Jotform is 1GB (1048576 KB).
- The maximum recommended number of file uploads is 25 per entry.
- Check your plan’s available Upload Space to better manage your file size limits.
- If your form is connected to a cloud service like Google Drive or Dropbox, uploads larger than the cloud’s available storage space will not be completed.

When uploading a project file, a Maximum File Size Exceeded error displays and you are not able to submit your project. This happens if your project file is larger than allowed.

Hi,
Is there a way to setup multiple filesize limits based on file types:
For example, limiting any jpeg/jpg files to 5MB while png, pdf to 1MB, etc?...

Is there a concern about file attachments being too big to send via Gmail? Example; I have email notifications set so that if a user uploads one or more files on my form, I get those attached to my email notification. If the files are too large to go through Gmail's restrictions, I won't get the notification.
Any way around this?

Hi,
1. I have a paid DropBox account (Pro) so have plenty of space. So reading from these points am I still limited to 300mb for files to go to my Dropbox folder from the upload button on a form?
2. Also is there anyway to stop the videos from being stored in my jotform account (mirrored). Just simply uploaded to Dropbox? I don't want to fill up my account in Jotform or the files count against me.
thanks.

i have problem to upload the files
More than a year ago
I have the same issue with 400MB files on 22.6mb/s upload connection. Anything under is working. Most our media from our clients is 600-900mbs. Using the individual upload tool is not an option since they can have anywhere from 10-30 files to up. I notice you made reference to the file picker widget from File stack, why is this not an option anymore? Can I use their picker api with your form by setting an account directly with them?
