# Script Limits

## **Script Limits**

Because cortex scripts execute within a multi-tenant environment, there are limits in place to ensure that runaway scripts do not monopolize shared resources.

### **Execution Limits**

Below are the default limits enforced per Cortex script execution

| Description                                                              | Default Limit       |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------- |
| Job timeout (maximum execution time for a Cortex Job)                    | 10,000 milliseconds |
| Route timeout (maximum execution time for a Cortex Route)                | 5,000 milliseconds  |
| Trigger timeout (maximum execution time for a Cortex Trigger)            | 5,000 milliseconds  |
| Notifications (maximum number of email, push, and/or sms notifications)  | 100                 |
| Callouts (maximum number of http module requests per script execution)   | 5                   |
| Callout timeout (maximum time for an http module request)                | 30,000 milliseconds |
| Callout request size (maximum size for an http module request)           | 524.288 Kilobytes   |
| Callout response size (maximum size for an http module request response) | 524.288 Kilobytes   |
| Execution depth (maximum levels of nested cortex script executions)      | 4                   |
| Max operations (Jobs, Triggers, and Routes)                              | 1,000,000           |

### **Daily limits**

| Description                                   | Default Limit |
| --------------------------------------------- | ------------- |
| Job runs (maximum number of job runs per day) | 24            |

### **General Limits**

| Description                                                     | Default Limit     |
| --------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------- |
| Cortex script size (maximum character limit of a cortex script) | 50,000 characters |

In addition to the above limits, the following limitations are enforced within Cortex scripts.

* Callouts to Cortex API endpoints are not allowed within a Cortex script. Use the CortexObject class and its methods for interacting with Cortex Objects in scripts, instead.
* Callouts are not allowed in in-line triggers
* Triggers are not allowed on the Views, Scripts, Org and Objects objects
