Hey there, I totally get that twinge of worry when your automated deployments have pushed your GAS project version past 270—let’s break down what we can confirm about this:

• No Official Documented Cap: First off, Google’s official Apps Script documentation doesn’t list any hard upper limit for project versions. I’ve dug through deployment guides, API references, and support articles repeatedly, and there’s zero mention of a maximum version count you can hit.
• Community Real-World Insights: From developer discussions and shared experiences, many folks have reported running projects with versions well over 300 without hitting errors or restrictions. While there’s a tiny chance of an undocumented soft limit (like slower project load times with hundreds of old versions), there’s no concrete evidence of this being a widespread issue right now.
• Practical Ways to Manage High Version Counts:
  • Skip version bumps for minor internal updates: Use a draft deployment for testing changes instead of creating a new version every time. Only increment the version when you’re rolling out a stable, user-facing update.
  • Automate old version cleanup: You can use the Apps Script API’s projects.versions.delete method to write a quick script that removes unused, outdated versions. Just double-check you don’t delete versions linked to active deployments!
  • Try in-place updates (carefully): If your use case allows, you can update the code of an existing deployed version directly. Note that this pushes changes to all users immediately, so it’s best for non-critical apps or paired with thorough pre-deployment testing.

For now, you’re probably safe to keep your current automated deployment workflow running. But adding some version management practices will help keep your project tidy and avoid any potential (unproven) issues down the line.
