What is the current text limit for creating knowledge for Custom GPTs? I tried to do it and get this error : This file contains too much text content. Please try again with a smaller file.

How large was the file you tried to upload? I think I saw a limit on a total of 10 files, but I haven’t seen any file size limits discussed yet.
1 File, 10MB, however theres alooooooooooot of text inside.
They said that the context limit was 128k on GPT-4 Turbo
Yeah, but that is just the request-by-request context token limit. The files that you upload are presumably translated to embeddings and managed in something akin to a vector DB. There has to be some sort of cap/limit on that, but i haven’t seen anything mentioned as of yet.
You could try a “binary search” deduction approach. Keep cutting the file size in half until it finally accepts that size. Then, break the original file into chunks of that accepted size. It’s a kludgy workaround, but it might keep you moving forward while all of this shakes out.
Haha yeah i will try to do that. Meanwhile i have created a free tools that let u extract your website as the custom GPTs knowledge file ! Feel free to use it, its free !

Hey,
Has anyone figured it out? I’m having the same problem, even with very small files. 
“This file contains too much text content. Please try again with a smaller file.” Ugh.
I get it too with a 22MB file. I need to do data analysis on it so context should not matter.
Maybe switch file formats. I got “cannot upload” errors for a tab-delimited 33MB file. Splitting to smaller, even tiny files, failed.
But the same data in CSV (comma-delimited) format uploads fine.
(It’s possible the error message is not precise.) Try a different format.
Perhaps…
