Original Pull Request: https://github.com/actualbudget/actual/pull/6103

State: closed
Merged: Yes


The FAQ incorrectly stated that Actual does not enforce upload size limits.
This PR corrects the answer to accurately reflect that:

  • Actual enforces upload size limits via Express middleware
  • Three configurable environment variables control these limits:
    • ACTUAL_UPLOAD_FILE_SIZE_LIMIT_MB (default: 20 MB)
    • ACTUAL_UPLOAD_FILE_SYNC_SIZE_LIMIT_MB (default: 20 MB)
    • ACTUAL_UPLOAD_SYNC_ENCRYPTED_FILE_SYNC_SIZE_LIMIT_MB (default: 50 MB)
  • Users can increase these values if needed
  • Reverse proxy settings may also need adjustment
