Package acceptance validation error: Package size exceeds maximum allowed limit of 256000 bytes

Question

Tried uploading a package on Marketplace offers thru Microsoft Partner Center. The company wants to have the app to be available on the AppSource/Marketplace.

Done cleaning up my package but it seems that I can't break through the 256kb file size limit. I've reached file size of 465kb .sppkg. Any idea how to proceed with this?

Answer 1

Hello,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!

According to this document: Package format requirements, the behavior you get is expected. Currently, the max size for a package is 25GB.

You might need to reduce the package size by not including the unnecessary data or files in the package. For example, you could download and load the image resources from the server once the app is installed.

Thank you.
