Hi Guys,

I saw that in feature request it was commented saying multiple file upload feature has been implemented

> [@Upload multiple files at once](https://community.glideapps.com/t/upload-multiple-files-at-once/21130):
>
> I have a use-case for being able to upload multiple files at once via File Picker. This topic is similar to someone wanting to upload multiple images at once - but I thought I would add this as it pertains specifically to the File Picker. My users are often grabbing many files at once. As a result, I have 20+ File Picker components in a form. But as you can imagine, that is a lot of clicking for the user to upload a single file using a single file picker. Additionally, this increases the risk …

Is this done? If yes which component allows this?

Thank you in advance for help.

Regards,  
Dilip

You can do it with a File Picker. Target it at a Multiple Files column.

Hi @Darren_Murphy ,

Thank you for replying,

A Multiple Images column used in an Image Component should render as a carousel.  
Videos are different - it’s generally not recommended to use Glide Storage for videos.

Hi @Darren_Murphy ,

Thank you for responding. Wanted to know more on this

> [@Darren\_Murphy](#):
>

Is it because of streaming or upload size?

I have implemented my entire system to store videos on glide storage.

How would it impact my platform performances?

Should I consider alternative?
