Caution
Depending on your contract, you might be required to adhere to these limits.
Item | Limit |
---|---|
Unique Records | Maximum 500,000,000 per audience |
Segment data fields (segment categories, such as "Gender") for Activation workflow audiences | Maximum 500 per audience |
Columns for Measurement Enablement workflow audiences (including both identifier columns and segment data columns) | Maximum 500 per audience |
File uploads | Maximum average of 1 file per hour (1 file per day for PII-based UK data and 1 file per week for PII-based French data) |
Caution
Exceeding the maximum average of file uploads per audience might result in SLAs not being met. When uploading multiple U.S. data files, do not exceed 24 per day.
When creating files for upload to a particular audience, make sure to take into account the recommended file limits as well as the file formatting guidelines.
Note
By default, new audiences are configured with an import recency filter to automatically delete files that are older than 360 days. This helps to manage the size of the audience and to reduce costs (if you're using the Records Under Management billing metric).
For an existing audience without an import recency filter, you can create a support case to request an import recency filter. For more information, see "Automatically Delete Older Files".
