Combo Box Delegation warning-SharePoint as back end data base

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 15

Hi There,

I have combo box which is retrieving data from a Share Point column which has more than 10,000 rows. And i am using Choices([@'Test Child list'].MasterLookup) on items property. This formula is giving delegation warning. I tried Filter with Search but it also does not work. I will appreciate any help in this regard.

    The choices field is considered a Complex column and will therefore have delegation limitations

     

    There is great video by Shane Young that explains Delegation (2) PowerApps Delegation and the 500 item limit - YouTube

     

    Also this document provides good information about delegation Understand delegation in a canvas app - Power Apps | Microsoft Docs

    HI @PowerBridge ,

    A Choices field itself is not a Delegation limitation (it is simply a list of "hard-coded" values) and can be compared with ChoiceFieldName.Value, however any column (of any type) used in a Filter in Power Apps on a SharePoint list of over 5,000 items needs to be indexed in SharePoint. If this is not the issue, what is the full code (in Text please) you are receiving the Delegation warning on?
