Posted on by Community Power Pla...

Hello Expert!

I have created a flow which export my SharePoint list items in CSV, Everything is working fine but in my CSV file I am getting only 100 items not all the items of SharePoint, Is there any limit that we can export only 100 items. I have used Get items then Create CSV Table and then Create file in my one drive.

Please see below screenshot of my flow.

Default limit for Get Items from SharePoint is 100 rows.

To override this, click the 3 dots/ellipses next to the Get Items action and under settings then set Pagination to Yes, and Threshold to a big number (closely matching expected size of your SharePoint List).

Please click Accept as solution if my post helped you solve your issue. This will help others find it more readily. It also closes the item. If this post or my previous reply was useful in other ways, please consider giving it Thumbs Up.

Hi @Anonymous
By default, Get items returns on 100 items.
If you are working with items more than 100, you can increase this limit up to the list view threshold limit of 5,000.
let’s say I want 500 items to be fetched. So, I have mentioned 500 in the threshold.
For more info about Get items limits, you can refer to:

Hope the content above may help you.
Best Regards

@v-LilyW-msft Thanks Sir for your quick response.
Everything is working fine now but flow is taking too much time and one more thing is there any way to filter out my SharePoint items within Get Items connector. Actually after getting the items I have created a Condition that IF Name(SharePoint Column) is Equal to "XYZ" then create a CSV file. And what will happened if my SharePoint item will have more than 5000 items? Showing flow run time out:

When you do Get Items, you can use ODATA Filter Query to get items which meet your criteria.
This way you can only retrieve items which meet your business use case.

What is the error message that you are getting when you use ODATA filter query instead of the condition action

Use RequestStatus eq 'New' instead of Request Status eq 'New'
- when writing ODATA Filter Query: remove the space from between the two words of column name, i.e. Request and Status

Hi @Anonymous
Please check if the outputs of Get items has content.
I test on my side with the expression, it can filter the items that status is equal to New and the CSV File can be created with these items.
This is my test list

About how to find the column internal name you can refer to:
https://tomriha.com/what-is-sharepoint-column-internal-name-and-where-to-find-it/
After flow runs,the csv file will be created with the content.
Best Regards.
