Delegation warning.

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi,

 

I am receiving the following same error message at multiple locations throughout my app. Is this something to worry about? How can I fix it? Also, when I click on the source of this error, nothing seems highlighted so I can't figure out what exactly is causing it?

    This is a delegation warning. Showing the formula giving would help know exactly what is happening.
    Also what is your datasource sharepoint or SQL. I it date column or text column. Is your records more than 2000 rows etc.

    What is a delegation warning and why is it important? 

     

    Why would the formula not work above 2,000 records in the SP list?

     

    Thanks

    Hi @eka and @mdevaney 

     

    I had an idea to overcome the delegation issue. Do you think it would work?

     

    On a daily basis I have a button on my App that pushes data to a sharepoint list and this is at most 300 records a day. (step 1)

     

    The user then uses the App to update these records with their taken actions and comments. 

     

    If I filter my Sharepoint List, from Step 1, so that it only displays data from today's date would that get over the delegation issue?
