# Integration Limits

***

Kosmos applies sensible limits to ensure reliable performance across all connected systems. This page documents current limits by integration.

### Why Limits Exist

During the 90-day Historical Baseline and ongoing sync, Kosmos ingests data from multiple systems. Limits prevent:

* Exceeding provider API rate limits
* System overload with very large repositories or orgs
* Slow sync times that delay your results

Most customers never hit these limits. If you do, they're configurable—talk to your Kosmos team.

***

### GitHub

| Limit                  | Default      | Notes                               |
| ---------------------- | ------------ | ----------------------------------- |
| Repositories displayed | 50           | In configuration screen; adjustable |
| Max items per sync     | 10,000       | Across all repos                    |
| Items per repository   | 500          | Per sync cycle                      |
| Commits per repo       | 500          | Most recent                         |
| Pull requests per repo | 200          | Most recent                         |
| API rate limit         | \~5,000/hour | GitHub's standard limit             |

**What this means:** For most teams, Kosmos captures your full deployment history. Very large monorepos or orgs with 100+ active repos may need limit adjustments.

### Bitbucket

| Limit                  | Default | Notes                           |
| ---------------------- | ------- | ------------------------------- |
| Repositories displayed | 200+    | Paginated; all repos accessible |
| Commits per repo       | 500     | Most recent                     |
| Pull requests per repo | 200     | Most recent                     |

**What this means:** Kosmos paginates through all repositories in your workspace. Very large workspaces with 200+ repos are fully supported.

***

### Jira

| Limit                 | Default | Notes                   |
| --------------------- | ------- | ----------------------- |
| Max results per query | 5,000   | Jira API constraint     |
| Page size             | 100     | Per API request         |
| Max projects          | 100     | In configuration screen |

**What this means:** Covers the vast majority of Jira instances. If you have 5,000+ issues in a 90-day window, we'll capture the most recent.

***

### Salesforce

| Limit                | Default | Notes            |
| -------------------- | ------- | ---------------- |
| Max records per sync | 5,000   | Cases, incidents |
| Batch size           | 200     | Per API request  |

**What this means:** Sufficient for most Service Cloud implementations. High-volume support orgs (10K+ cases/quarter) may need adjustments.

***

### ServiceNow

| Limit                | Default | Notes                      |
| -------------------- | ------- | -------------------------- |
| Max records per sync | 5,000   | Incidents, change requests |
| Page size            | 100     | Per API request            |

**What this means:** Covers most ITSM implementations. High-volume environments may need adjustments.

***

### Zendesk

| Limit                | Default | Notes           |
| -------------------- | ------- | --------------- |
| Max tickets per sync | 5,000   | Support tickets |
| Page size            | 100     | Per API request |

**What this means:** Sufficient for most support organizations.

***

### Pylon

| Limit               | Default | Notes                        |
| ------------------- | ------- | ---------------------------- |
| Max issues per sync | 5,000   | Support issues and tasks     |
| Message enrichment  | Opt-in  | Configurable per integration |

**What this means:** Covers most Pylon implementations. Message enrichment can be enabled for deeper context.

***

### OpenTelemetry (Preview)

| Limit               | Default       | Notes                     |
| ------------------- | ------------- | ------------------------- |
| Data retention      | 7 days        | Raw traces, logs, metrics |
| Correlation cadence | 15 minutes    | Batch processing interval |
| Request rate        | 1,000 req/min | Per customer              |
| Payload size        | 5 MB          | Per request               |

**What this means:** OTel data is processed in 15-minute batches for correlation. Raw data is retained for 7 days; correlation metadata is retained with your other signals.

***

### Adjusting Limits

All limits are configurable. If you're hitting a limit that affects your results, contact your Kosmos team. Common adjustments:

* Increasing repository count for large GitHub orgs
* Extending record limits for high-volume Salesforce orgs
* Adjusting sync frequency for real-time needs

***

### FAQ

**Q: Will I lose data if I hit a limit?** No. Kosmos captures the most recent data up to the limit. Older records outside the limit aren't deleted—they're just not synced.

**Q: How do I know if I'm hitting a limit?** Your Kosmos team monitors sync health and will proactively reach out if limits are affecting your results.

**Q: Can limits be increased?** Yes. Limits are configurable per customer. Higher limits may increase sync time but won't affect platform stability.

**Q: Do limits affect real-time monitoring?** No. Limits primarily apply to the initial Historical Baseline. Ongoing monitoring processes new data as it arrives.

**Q: How long does the Historical Baseline take?** Typically under 10 minutes for 90 days of data. Very large datasets may take longer; your Kosmos team will keep you informed.

**Q: What about rate limits from the providers (GitHub, Jira, Salesforce)?** Kosmos respects provider rate limits automatically. We batch requests and throttle as needed to avoid hitting provider limits.
