Hello community,

I’m building a custom uploader from Uppy and I’m using @uppy/aws-s3-multipart.

Currently I can upload successfully but it sends all the files in a disorganized way.

I would like to know if it is possible to control the number of files being simulated or just know how to send files 1 by 1.

Is that possible ?

Thank you !

I am aware that this is a late response, and there is a good chance that this is already solved. But for you or anyone with the same issue, here is a solution that I’ve found.

You can set the `limit` property in the options to limit the maximum number of chunks sent at once.

Here is an example

```javascript
uppy.use(AwsS3Multipart, {
  limit: 1
  companionUrl: 'your companion url'
})

```

The default property is zero, which translates to no limit.

I hope this helped. If you have any further issues or questions, let me know.
