Participant Limit was created by stephanied
Before I recommend to the company I work for to use Limesurvey for tokens, I must find out if there is a limit to the number of participants I can import for any given survey.

On another forum post I saw that the csv must be smaller than 2MB, but it never specified if there was a limit to participants.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Well, there is no real limitation (as Denis said)
But of course you will not be able to upload 500.000 participants in one batch because of the "max_execution_time".

In the last weeks (in another post) we had some tests. About 30000-40000 will be uploaded in one batch (more or less)
So the csv file will not exceed this limitation (2MB)

Best regards
Joffm
