The workspace is a central repository for storing, reviewing, and updating project assets. A byte, page, and megapixel limit define the largest file or image you can upload. Establishing asset limits improves workspace performance. Insight into specific file extension limits is outlined below.

Hard Maximum Specifications
Maximum Upload Size - 15 MB (Web), 5 MB (Mobile)
Maximum Frames - 350
Maximum Pixel Count (width x height x # frames) - <= 300
Maximum Frames per Second - 30
Hard Maximum BehaviorThe member selects files to upload. The Bluescape-backed system processes the files, and any of the following are true:
Maximum File Size - <= 15 MB
Maximum Frames - <= 500
Maximum Pixel Count - <= 300M
Maximum Frames per Second - 30
A message returns notifying the user that file name “X” exceeds the Bluescape maximum limit for this file.
The user can view the file size requirements by expanding a dialog (for example) from the error message.
Downscaling BehaviorThe user selects files to upload. The Bluescape-backed system processes the files, and any of the following are true:
Maximum Frame Rate >= 350 and <= 500. The file is downscaled to 350 frames by dropping every 2nd, 3rd, and 4th (and so on) frame as necessary.
Maximum Resolution >= 1280 x 1080. The file is downscaled to 1280 x 1080. The system maintains the aspect ratio.
Maximum Frames per Second >= 30 and <= 60. The file is downscaled to 30 FPS.
A message returns notifying the user that file name “X” exceeds the Bluescape maximum limit for this file type and the file was downscaled during the upload process, and the file quality may be degraded.
The user can view the file size requirements by expanding a dialog (for example) from the error message.
Videos
150 MBVideo upload limits:
Enabled on a per-Team basis
Maximum upload resolution is 4000p and maximum playback resolution is 1080p
Viewing all video types from the Wall is supported
Codec support for H.264, H.265, AV1, V8, V9, MPEG2, MPEG1, ProRes (10, 12 bits)
Microsoft documents - default upload limit is 150 MB; however, this can vary by team
Contact your Team Administrator if you have questions on video upload limits
Other Limitations
Bluescape on the Web
Due to limitations on running a browser within a browser, many external sites are not navigable within the Web client – though they are on a Wall client. Navigable sites must support both HTTPS and iFrames.
Bluescape App for Desktop & Large Displays
In the Bluescape app, browsers have the following limitations:
Cookies are only stored while the session is active
When the workspace is inactive/closed, all cookies are deleted
No browser history is maintained
Pop-ups are not supported
Image rendering in the Bluescape App
Any image larger than 12 megapixels in a workspace opened on a large display might be downscaled to maximize workspace memory. Similarly, if the sum of all images exceeds 3 gigapixels, the quality might be downscaled to maximize workspace memory. (3 gigapixels equals approximately 250 photos captured on an iPhone.)
Note: When you download an image from the workspace, the original quality remains intact – even if the image quality is downscaled when opened on a large display.
@Nate The team is looking at expanding the supported file types for rich media, although the discussion is continuing as to which specific file types will be included. Do you have specific ones in mind?
Actually - I missed a big one on the list above: unknown type.
If Bluescape had the ability to upload an unknown file type, say a .bin, and instead of rejecting the upload as an unknown type, just place an icon in its place, then that would be SO useful for those that want to pass types back and forth, for sharing or reference, but don’t need Bluescape to render them. In this capacity, Bluescape would be just acting as the UI for the sharing of files.
I always forget that people do ask me for this, but it’s usually followed up with a specific type, so it slipped my mind.
