Shortcut limitations

Does anyone know what this means?   "The maximum number of shortcuts in a single OneLake path is 10."   This is from Unify data sources with OneLake shortcuts - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn...

Hi dwpurdy ,

 

Your understanding is correct.

 

The limit of “The maximum number of shortcuts in a single OneLake path is 10.” refers to the depth of shortcut traversal.

 

So if you create shortcuts to shortcuts and continue in this mode, you can go up to 10 levels deep.

 

This limit helps maintain manageability and performance and prevents the structure of shortcuts from becoming too complex.

 

If you have any other questions please feel free to contact me.

    I don't think the accepted answer is correct, I am only able to create 5 levels of shortcut-to-shortcut. This lines up with the limitation The maximum number of direct shortcuts to shortcut links is 5.
