Does Salesforce have any limits on indexing the number of fields on a Big Object?

The example in the latest Big Object guide indexes 3 fields. Does anyone know, whats the governor limit on number of indexes, if any?

  • Docs suggest they're the same as normal field limits, so probably just about the same.

Based upon this knowledge base article it looks like the limit is 5 as Geoff Rothman reported.

https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=custom_bo_considerations.htm&type=5

Quoting in case this link ever dies:

"Keep these considerations in mind when creating the index.

  • An index must include at least one custom field and can have up to five custom fields total."

As of today, the limit for indexes in a bigobject is 5

  • Do you have a source to corroborate this? Your answer seems to be at odds with the accepted answer.
