Hi everyone,
I am getting quite frsutrated. I am trying to build a custom GPT. but I keep getting hit by the same problems that come up as an error meesage that there are issues saving the draft. contact the help center:
I also get some message in orange come up on the screen but it disapears too fast to read it or to get a screenshot.
But as you know there is no one there and this issue I cant find anywhere. I have cleared cookies etcand still the same, I have tried this on multiple GPT builds and I keep getting the same faults
Does this meant that OpenAI will only allow a certain amount of information to be uploaded to the GPT to train it? Which I cant belive this is the case if we want to build an expert GPT…
Anyway has anyone else had this issue? What is the solution? as the help center is no help at all.
I’m very frustrated and I hope there is something I am doing wrong so I can fix this asap. looking forward to any assistance and help you can offer.

I get this issue if my instructions are longer than 8000 characters.
just set up gpt on your pc and use files for the overage. it can be instructed to read a file in a directory… you could prob also link your google drive and have extra prompt instructions there or data it can use for knowledge… you could also use an assistant vs custom gpt
Thanks for the suggestion @goetz.niklas. I have only just started this GPT and the instructions so far only have 657 Characters
and nowhere near enough to accurately instruct ( Although I will be restructuring it to suit the documentation more… If I can ever get it to save anything again)
THanks for the input @tbrogangfs, forgive my ignorance ( I’m new here 
)
What is Overage? and how to instruct to reeead from a directory? and where would that directory generally be located?
What is the benefit of an assistant over a custom GPT? And how/Where do I create an assistant? I have only seen an option for custom GPTs.
So What I have so far uploaded are 18 PDF files and 2 Zip files and 657 characters of very basic instructions just to start. I want to upload more documntation but cant
The largest individual PDF file I have upladed is just shy of 44mb
Could any of this be causing issues?
SO I have found that there are limitations of 20 files can be uploaded for the life of the GPT. and a max off 512mb/ file… also 10GB per user and 100GB per organisation

Looks like ill have to find a new way to upload my files… Maybe combiine the smaller ones into larger files? Any suggestions?
