Limits

These are the limits you’re most likely to run into. They’re the platform’s compiled defaults — not marketing round numbers — and where an organization admin can override one, that’s noted.

Query execution

What Limit
Rows kept from a single query 10,000
How long one query may run 300 seconds

A query returning more than the row cap is truncated to it, and the stored result is flagged as truncated rather than failing. Two connectors opt out of the cap and return however many rows the query produced: SQL Server and Query Results.

Exceeding the time limit stops the query and fails the run. Narrow the time range or aggregate in SQL rather than pulling rows and filtering afterward.

Rate limits

See Conventions for the status code and behavior when a limit is hit.

Retention and pagination caps

What Limit
Query Results meta-source: distinct cached results loaded per run 500
Monitor delivery history returned per request 50 rows, newest first
Audit log page size 250 max, 25 default

Scheduling and dashboards

What Limit
Consecutive scheduled-run failures before auto-pause 10
Advanced (cron) schedule expression 6 fields (seconds required); a 5-field crontab is rejected
Daily/weekly schedule time UTC in the schedule editor (no timezone picker); the API accepts a timezone
Dashboard grid 6 columns
