    Hi, I have created a form in my account called November Expenses. This has 60 submissions and has around 52 uploaded pdf attachments. I have tried to download all these submissions but when I do, there are only 28 files that have downloaded. Can you tell me why this is happening please?

    Sorry for the inconvenience. I have just verified and when you try to download all your files. The zip file only contains 28 files. It seems that our team create a rule to only download 250MB at a time. I have created a ticket so the may fix this issue.

    If you require this urgently, I suggest you use our download app

    Hi Victor

    Many thanks for your reply. I did see the 250MB limit, but when the 28 files are downloaded they have a total zip size of just 1.9MB and an unzipped size of 2.2MB.

    So I don't think that download file size is the issue.

    Do you agree?

    Thx

    Hello Mark,

    To clarify further, both file limits and file size limits are imposed.

    Max no. of files to be downloaded: 250 files

    Max File size to be downloaded: 250 MB

    However, in your case, I was able to reproduce the problem. It only downloads a total of 28 files with only 2MB total size. I will include this on the report ticket.

    You will be informed here for any updates.

    By the way, you can also filter the submissions in the data grid by following this guide http://www.jotform.com/help/73-How-to-Partially-Download-Form-Submissions-as-Excel-CSV-PDF. This will allow you to download files by batch.

    I have experienced this today, too. On a form with just 42 submissions, only 25 sets of the attached files were downloaded, total of 1.6MB. Form is: https://www.jotform.com//?formID=53267446777974
