Azure media library with lots of files makes "Select media file" dialog unresponsive

Matthew Butler asked on June 30, 2022 21:30

Do anyone have any advice/approach on using Azure storage for a large number of media?

I have put items in to sub-folders so most have < 50 items, one has 170. Doing this allows the media library UI to work (although quite slow). But the media selection dialog in the Pages application now doesn't return when calling "GetFolderStructure"

Any ideas?

Per the documentation you should limit the number of files per folder to 100. Once you reach the limit, make sure you create a structure that allows you to divide the files into multiple folders. The number of files in one folder directly affects the performance of the Media library user interface.
