# Limits

> Rate and operational limits for the Glide API

## Payload Limits

You should not send more than 15MB of data in a single request. If you need to work with more data, use [stashing](/docs/classic-api/stashing/introduction) to upload the data in 15MB chunks.

## Row Limits

Even when using stashing, there are limits to the number of rows you can work with in a single request. These limits are approximate and depend on the size of the rows in your dataset.
