## Understand List Data limitations

The [List Data](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/x/AJl3H) macro provides data options from a specific list. However, processing many List Data items when the **type** parameter is set to **check** or **select** can result in performance issues for Confluence.

> ℹ️ If there are many items, selecting an option from a long list of radio buttons, checkboxes, or dropdown menus can be tedious. In that use case, setting the **type** parameter of the parent List Data to **Auto Complete **is more appropriate.

## Enable or disable the List Data limit

> ℹ️ This feature is enabled by default when upgrading to Scaffolding 8.21.0. The default limit value is 250.

1. Select **Administration **( :jira-cog: ) >** Manage apps**.
2. Go to *SCAFFOLDING CONFIGURATION* in the sidebar and click **Settings**.
3. In the *List Data limit settings *section, click **Edit**.

4. Use the **Enabled** toggle to enable or disable the *List Data limit* setting.
5. In the **List Data limit** field, update the value to set a new limit.
6. Click **Save**.
