Quick Edit Pasting

Can someone explain what the actual limits are and what the best browser to use is if I want to paste data into a Sharepoint Online list using a quick edit view? I see conflicting information as far ...

CWagner I think the limit is 100 items at a time. I trick I use is to setup a view that shows 100 items and filters out the ones I've already updated.

Quick Edit is the Modern SharePoint name for the Datasheet view in Classic SharePoint

Are you using the latest version of Edge (Chromium based) or the original version? I haven't had issues with the latest version.

SteveKnutson I regularly use quick edit to add well over 100 items at a time using Chrome. However I try to keep it below 300 as above that I find the page can (though doesn't always) stop responding in the initial paste phase before it adds each item.

RobElliott thanks Rob, I hadn't tried more for quite a long time. Old habits!
