Oracle DB Error ORA-01240 too many data files to add in one command

The following is the cause of this error:

The command specifies adding more datafiles than can be done in one command. It is necessary to fit all the file names into one log entry, but that would make the entry too large.

Action you can take to resolve this issue: If this is a CREATE TABLESPACE command, create with fewer files then add the other files later. If this is an ADD DATAFILE command, break it up into multiple commands.
