What’s happening?
There was a sudden increase in data volume for a specific table on the 14th and 15th of the month, but upon applying a date filter, it was observed that no new data was generated on those days.
 

Reason:
The increase in data volume is attributed to the system-side data usage, which includes indexes that are counted in the database capacity. This means that even if no new data appears in the table, the overall capacity may still increase due to system-related data.
 

Resolution:

  • Confirm that the filtering is applied using the "Modified On" field instead of the "Created On" field, as this may affect the visibility of the data.
  • If the data is still not visible, check if removing all filters allows the data to be displayed.
  • Understand that the database capacity displayed in the Power Platform management center includes system-side data usage, which may lead to an increase in capacity without new entries in the table.
