OpenAPI import limits

[kercsoj]

Hi All,

I wanted to explore the OpenAPI import functionality of Gitbook with the following sample OpenAPI file: https://gist.github.com/seriousme/55bd4c8ba2e598e416bb5543dcd362dc . Although the API spec is very small and it has just a few endpoints, Gitbook import fails with the message "Some of your docs were not imported due to file limits, try splitting them into several imports." I am pretty sure I didn't reach the 20 pages limit / import as specified here: https://docs.gitbook.com/content-editor/import#limitations

Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thank you in advance!

👋 @kercsoj, I don't know if I'm missing anything, but I could import that file just fine. Are you using an OpenAPI block to import?

Hi @aikoii!

thanks for your swift answer. No, I am not using the OpenAPI block, but using the "Import content" button. See recording about the issue: https://github.com/GitbookIO/community/assets/47670884/e0ca6275-9755-4a01-adce-c84ad9480c99

Thanks,
Jozsef

Thanks for sending over the recording, Jozsef! "Import content" feature can be helpful, but it can be limiting. I'd recommend using OpenAPI block instead; it's the best way to incorporate APIs into GitBook🙂

Got it, thank you!

I've experienced the same issue as originally reported. I also find (and suspect that it's true in OP's case as well, from their recording) that despite the error message, the OpenAPI spec actually DOES get imported fully, despite the error message. The error message appears to be incorrect.

Hey @minaelee, thanks for sharing! Would it be possible to share the file so I can test it out?
