**Describe the bug:**  
Currently, you can only upload one file at a time in Glide.

Can we please get this bug fixed ASAP in Glide?

**Expected Behaviour:**  
You should be able to drag and drop or upload as many files at a time as you want.

**How to replicate:**  
You can only upload one document at a time, which is hurting everyone’s experience within Glide. Allowing multiple files at once could save years of users’ lives.

**Demonstration:**  
See screenshot below!

@Darren_Murphy I can’t reply to your message so I’ll post it here. No one has responded to my post and nothing has been done about the feature request from almost 2 years ago. With the issue that it causes it can be classified as a bug. It’s not overly complex to fix this bug. The whole Glide community would greatly appreciate this fix! I’ll vote on the original request and add my comments there. Hopefully that will will make a difference! Thank you

This is not a bug, it’s a missing feature.

I see that you already created a feature request for this:

> [@Allow numerous files to be uploaded at once](https://community.glideapps.com/t/allow-numerous-files-to-be-uploaded-at-once/51056):
>
> It looks like this has been posted a few times before… Currently, you can only upload one file at a time in Glide. It would be amazing if you could drag and drop or upload as many files at a time as you want. Below is a screenshot displaying how time consuming uploading 5 files is. Can we please get this feature pushed through in Glide?

Which is actually a duplicate of an existing feature request:

> [@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 …

Having duplicate feature requests splits the votes on the requests and can result in a disjointed discussion, so we prefer to keep all the discussion regarding a single request/topic in a single thread.

Recommend that you vote for the original request, and add your comments there.
