Power Automate Max File Size for Transferring Files, SFTP, Connectors, Etc

Posted on by asjones987

We were looking at using Power Automate to move some data files as part of an ETL process. One of our vendors even has a Power Automate Connector (unfortunately premium connector). In looking at the process we were told that Power Automate has a 50mb limit. Unfortunately 50mb is extremely small when you are looking at accounting/finance transaction data (CSV files). I should add in my testing I got an error message from Power Automate the limit was 30mb. So now even more confused and worried.

I am sure others have hit this limit. What are the workaround options? What do others do?

Love to hear the options. This seems really odd to have something so small these days.

thanks

Alan

Hey @asjones987, I'm curious about the best way to handle this as well.

Could Dataflows be a good fit instead of PA?

Good idea, however in my case i need to get the file from a network store (via gateway) and push it somewhere else with a 3rd party connector. My understanding DataFlows only import data.

thanks for the response. ... love to hear other ideas.
