Upload files to your CARTO account and manipulate them by using a set of HTTP commands.

This component is still under support but it will not be further developed. We don’t recommend starting new projects with it as it will eventually become deprecated. Instead, learn more about our new APIs here

Limits

Limits ensure that CARTO platform is not flooded with so many requests it does not have the time and resources to service them all.

Currently, Import API is affected by a number of limits.
