Alert noticed to change from CountRows To CountIf

(2) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by MIA 22
I am using the below code on the label text properties, 

CountRows(WarrantyDataGallery.AllItems) & "  of  total Records : " & CountRows(colAllWarranty)
 
The code is bringing the correct result, and it was working since years without any warning, today I noticed below warning:
 
CountRows may return a cached value. 
Use CountIf(DataSource, true) to get the latest count.

Please guide, it need to replace the code the suggested method?.

    Hi
     
    That is new to me, I haven't seen that, although I believe multiple people mentioned it.

    Dear Mr. Mike,
     
    As I mentioned in my earlier post that where ever there was CountRows used, all the places the alert is showing. BUT it was working since years without any alert.
     
    Just to update you, I change on one of the label text :  
    Before Code was :  
    CountRows(colAllList)
     
    Changed to :
    CountIf(colAllList, true)
     
    Found, brings the same result, and Alert mark disappears.
     
    At this stage confused and looking forward to an advise, What to do?.
    change all the CountRows to CountIf
     
     
    Please guide further.
     
    Regards

    Hi MIA
     
    There's no need to change to CountIf(DataSource, true) in the scenario that you mention.
     
    This warning is designed for cases where the data source is Dataverse, CountRows is used without filtering, and the record count exceeds 50k records. Under these circumstances, Power Apps returns a cached count which may not be accurate. CountIf(DataSource, true) would be the way to achieve an accurate row count. 
     
    There are more details in the documentation here.
