I am trying to find a way to fix the width of my table to the margin of a portrait page (not landscape) while continuing the table in another page since it is very long. I can adjust the width by using resizebox (I found this better than adjustbox because I wanted to keep the caption and labels of the table as it is in other smaller tables I have), but I don't know how to continue in to another page. Using just the code below cuts the rest of the table in length since my table is also long. I am looking for a way to fit the width of the table automatically, but also have the table continue in a different page (for example using 'longtable' with resizebox?).
My question is similar to this one
Resize longtable to width of landscape page
but I do not want a landscape.
Thank you very much for your help!

As documented a
tableis a box so can not break over a pagelongtableshould not be used with it. Removing that fixes most of the problems, then just change the size and squeeze the columns a bit and it all fits.
