When it comes to Power Apps collections, there’s a widespread myth that collections can only store 2000 records. This has created confusion and restricted the use of collections in many automation and app scenarios. However, the reality is far different. Let’s dive deep into why this myth exists and how collections can store more than 2000 records, along with ways to test it.
🚫The Myth of 2000 Records
The limitation often associated with collections in Power Apps is actually tied to the live network calls rather than the collection’s actual capacity. When you use collections in Power Apps, you’re working within a framework where records are fetched in chunks. By default, the limit for these network calls is set to 500 records, but this can be easily increased to 2000 records in the app settings. So, the myth that collections can hold no more than 2000 records is more about how the data is fetched, not the collection's storage ability.But once you combine collections or use other approaches, this myth gets busted! 🔥
