As an administrator, you can modify the maximum import file size. To do so, use the `max_import_size` option in the [Application settings API](../../../api/settings.md#change-application-settings) or the [Admin Area UI](../../admin_area/settings/account_and_limit_settings.md).

NOTE:
There is currently an [issue](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/276930) where project fails to import if [shared runners enablement](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/runners/runners_scope.html#enable-shared-runners) does not match between project exported and project import. Ensure either both project have share runners enabled, or disable when importing project.

### Project fails to import due to mismatch
If the [shared runners enablement](../../../ci/runners/runners_scope.md#enable-shared-runners)
does not match between the exported project, and the project import, the project fails to import.
Review [issue 276930](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/276930), and either:
- Ensure shared runners are enabled in both the source and destination projects.
- Disable shared runners when you import the project.
