(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi All,

I am using below lookup formula but it throwing me delegation warning.
LookUp(
Journeys,
'Camp Lookup'.'safety vwAllCamps' = LookUp(
'safety vwAllCamps',
Camp = ComboBox7_1.Selected.Camp,
'safety vwAllCamps'
),
Journey_ID
)

Delegation warning is for below part-
LookUp(
'safety vwAllCamps',
Camp = ComboBox7_1.Selected.Camp,
'safety vwAllCamps'
)

 

 

Also it giving me delegation for below code-

Filter(Journeys,!IsBlank('Camp Lookup'))

    For the first one:

    Do you have a 'safety vwAllCamps' column in your 'safety vwAllCamps' list?  If not, then this is causing the issue.  Your lookup requires 2 parameters, 3 optional.  First is the datasource, second is the criteria and the third (optional) is what you want the Lookup to return.

     

    For the second one:

    You cannot delegate the !IsBlank.  You can delegate 'Camp Lookup' = Blank(), but not the negative of that.

     

    I hope this is helpful for you.

    Hi @RandyHayes ,

    Do you have a 'safety vwAllCamps' column in your 'safety vwAllCamps' list?
    Ans- Yes, it's a GUID column.

    For the second one:

    You cannot delegate the !IsBlank.  You can delegate 'Camp Lookup' = Blank(), but not the negative of that.

    Ans-  'Camp Lookup' = Blank(), this is not working beacuse Camp lookup is my lookup column so I am able to equate it with blanks, throws error saying "Invalid argument type"

    So the first thing to really ask...is this a problem (the delegation warning that is).  Will you have more than 2000 records in your list that you need to perform delegable criteria against?  If not, then I would resume what you have and ignore the warning.

     

    As for the other two questions:

    - ah, so this is Dataverse!

    - for the second - I don't believe it was checking for blank that you even wanted - I believe you wanted to find those that were NOT blank.  Which again, just isn't delegable.
