## Workflows step limit increased to 25,000 steps per instance

Mar 03, 2026 

[ Workflows ](https://developers.cloudflare.com/workflows/)[ Workers ](https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/) 

Each Workflow on Workers Paid now supports 10,000 steps by default, configurable up to 25,000 steps in your `wrangler.jsonc` file:

```

{

  "workflows": [

    {

      "name": "my-workflow",

      "binding": "MY_WORKFLOW",

      "class_name": "MyWorkflow",

      "limits": {

        "steps": 25000

      }

    }

  ]

}


```

Explain Code

Previously, each instance was limited to 1,024 steps. Now, Workflows can support more complex, long-running executions without the additional complexity of recursive or child workflow calls.

Note that the maximum persisted state limit per Workflow instance remains **100 MB** for Workers Free and **1 GB** for Workers Paid. Refer to [Workflows limits](https://developers.cloudflare.com/workflows/reference/limits/) for more information.
