What kind of limit are you talking about? Number of access profiles / roles?

I also know that this limit CAN be upped, as I’ve seen this being done for some of my clients. Please check this with your CSM for the possibilities.

Hi,

This is the information we have received from our CSM. You can check once.

The current default limit on the total number of roles and access profiles in a tenant is 30k. Direct entitlement assignment doesn’t change that limit

Hi @patanfiroz786 ,

There are soft limit (default) and hard limit (you must request sailpoint to inscrease) .

For access profile it’s : 3000. you can found this information here [Support Articles - [IdentityNow] IllegalArgumentException: You are limited to 3000 access profiles (sailpoint.com)](https://support.sailpoint.com/csm?id=kb_article_view&table=kb_knowledge&sys_kb_id=3a4106e51bf0191050bcc8866e4bcb20)

For role it’s 800 as say here : [Limit of roles in IDN - Identity Security Cloud (ISC) / ISC Discussion and Questions - SailPoint Developer Community](https://developer.sailpoint.com/discuss/t/limit-of-roles-in-idn/9706)

For application it’s 100 access profile per app.

For all case you need to open ticket for Sailpoint support for increasing this number.

We did this for access profile per application.
