Hi,

click on this [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/reporting-settings-kb.html#reporting-csv-settings](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/reporting-settings-kb.html#reporting-csv-settings)

modify the following line in the `kibana.yml` file:

```auto
xpack.reporting.csv.maxSizeBytes: <new_size_in_bytes>

```

Depending on how you installed Kibana, it could be in one of a few places, but is usually in the `config` directory of the Kibana installation folder.

Editors in linux are a personal choice, and my choice is vim. If Kibana is installed in `/usr/share/kibana` (I'm using Docker), I would type:

```auto
vim /usr/share/kibana/config/kibana.yml

```
