Hi @githubtar,
- Can you please attach a screenshot that shows the error message you're encountering when you attempt to import that file?
- Do you know how many vault items, or lines, that file contains?
Thank you in advance,

Hi @githubtar,
We currently only supports importing 2000 items at a time. This is primarily to minimize the load on our services and to ensure the whole import succeeds. As a current work around I would suggest splitting the import into chunks of 2000.
I'm sure not the only one with this issue. Would it be possible to fix?
We're also having this problem as of 1/9/2023. Only 4k logins. When we split import, it starts duplicating the folders... totally not helpful :(
For reference, here are our current cloud-hosted limits:
Individual vault import: https://github.com/bitwarden/server/blob/master/src/Api/Controllers/CiphersController.cs#L237-L242
Organizational vault import: https://github.com/bitwarden/server/blob/master/src/Api/Controllers/CiphersController.cs#L254-L259
@RobWiddick The 4k logins don't seem to be the issue here, so maybe it's the amount of collections or collectionRelationships. If you are able to split your import by folders/collection, it won't create duplicates.
Hi @djsmith85 thank you! I didn't think we had that many collections - I will dig into the collections and then split that way, thank you for the tip!
