Question
Can I change the attachment size limit in ticket comments?
Answer
It is not possible to increase the attachment size limits.
If you want to send files that exceed these limits, use another method. You can choose to host those files on another site and send the customer a hyperlink to the file or use a file-sharing app from our Marketplace such as the Box app.
For more information on attachments in tickets, see the article: Adding attachments to ticket comments.

It would be great to be able to opt into allowing larger attachments in comments, up to 5GB ideally.
We support video hosting and on very rare occasions, our support team needs to gather video files from customers to troubleshoot issues they report with adding and managing those video files. The current attachment limits mean we are forced to use and consider additional support tools to gather those files.
We like the security of keeping all attachments in Zendesk where we can redact attachments once they're no longer needed and use a platform we've already vetted security checks with.
It's frustrating that we have to seek solutions outside of this platform to fill this feature gap.
I agree with Mitchell! It would be great to see an increase in attachment size in Zendesk Support. For security reasons, we would love to be able to accept and manage attachments directly in Zendesk as opposed to a third-party tool.
Thanks for your consideration!
Hi Mitchell Sherman and Steven Granner -
Our official intake for feature requests and product feedback is in our community forum. Product managers follow posts there and provide roadmap updates. Here's the right topic to post this feedback in: Feedback on the ticketing system
I encourage you to post your feedback there, so that it gets into the tracking system the product team uses. Here's a handy guide on how to write an effective feedback post.
Hello Nicole,
Where can we make a request to increase attachment size limit for articles?
Thanks!
You can create a feedback post in the following topic: Feedback - Help Center (Guide)
If you're unsure what to include your feedback post, you can use this template.
I hope this helps!
65535 bytes limit is way too small.
This needs to be increased and the Admins allowed to set the limit.
