I have a pro plan (50k records per base). I’m trying to do CSV import of approximately 2k records onto a base of 24k records for an approximate total of 26k records on this base.

What other reasons could I be getting this error? See screenshot.

Hm, if I were to hazard a guess I would think that the error message is referring to a single select or multiple select field somewhere

Multiple select fields can only have 10k possible options (Documentation here)

I couldn’t find a limit reference for single select options but it’s probably the same?

If it’s not related to select fields then hopefully someone else has an idea!

As @Adam_TheTimeSavingCo said, that error is referring to the options in a select field. If you’ve gone over the 10,000 limit, then you need to convert that field to a linked record field instead.

Thanks @Adam_TheTimeSavingCo and @ScottWorld. I made a total careless error. Somehow I switched on the “first name” field to be “single select” instead of “single line text”.

Weekend saved!
