Q: I'm looking at the recommendation API (https://api.semanticscholar.org/api-docs/recommendations) for a list of papers. It is working but somehow I can not find what the maximum input papers are (experimentally im running against a limit around 100 papers after which I get an error 400 code returned. At fist I though I could use the limit code to change this but that is only for the number of output documents. As I'm trying this out for building a continuous updating repository I was wondering how to go about this when the number of documents in the repository exceeds 100?

Moving to Backend to triage

• eval increase to limits
• ensure documentation clarifies limits

@renespijker Could you confirm you're still running into this 100 input ceiling? I'm taking a look to identify input limits which seem to be quite a bit higher than this - but i'm still digging to understand this part of our structure
