Question

Asset Centric Location Filter limit

We have multiple Asset Centric Location Filters created which are used in Industrial Tools search to filter site specific assets.

When using multiple filters, we observed that the Search returns 0 assets.

We inspected the Network requests and observed the Cognite API call to assets/list fails with below error:

```

{
  "error": {
    "code": 400,
    "message": "Asset subtrees exceed the limit of 100000 assets."
  }
}

```

There are similar cases where a location filter is setup with asset subtree and the subtree has more than 100K assets.

 

Is there a way we can configure Location Filters to bypass the limit of 100k assets.

      Hi ​@Dipesh Yogi,

      As per my knowledge there is no way to bypass the limit of 100k assets. As per the documentation here, if the total size of the given subtrees exceeds 100,000 assets, an error will be returned.

      There are similar cases where a location filter is setup with asset subtree and the subtree has more than 100K assets.

      Can you please explain what you mean by this?

        Hi ​@Mithila Jayalath 

        I understood that when using asset subtree configuration with Location Filter there is a limit of 100k assets.

        There are similar cases where a location filter is setup with asset subtree and the subtree has more than 100K assets.

        By this I meant we have multiple location filters which end users would use to filter required data and when using multiple filters we would cross the limit of 100k most of the time.

        Right now we are trying to use dataset ids instead of Asset Subtree.
