Excel to New Dataverse Table - Only First 20 Rows

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 51

Hello,

 

Has anyone else had the same issue? I tried creating a new Dataverse table from Excel data. The table has 313 rows which show they've all been loaded in the preview (see attached photo), and are ready to be created. When I press "Create" and look at the data, only the first 20 rows have been pulled into the new Dataverse table.

 

Am I missing a setting somewhere? Or is this a Microsoft issue? 

 

Thanks,

 

Jason

    Hi @07GT ,

     

    It just previews the first 20 records. Actually, there are already more than 300 records in the table.

     

    Best Regards,

    This is because it only tells you it did 20, if you walk away and leave it. Just forget it exists, it will complete them all.

     

    20 is the known initial number in the docs it says its doing, but just let it finish as long as it takes and don't keep retrying etc or clicking create. You'll drive yourself insane.


    If I have helped you, I would really appreciate if you please Mark my answer as Resolved/Answered, and give it a thumbs up, so it can help others

    Cheers

    Ok thank you! I didn't realize there would be a delay in upload time.

    I have the exact same problem. Uploaded a file over a week ago and it's still only 20 rows

    Does anyone know why this delay? I'm stumbled upon the same and waiting now if it increases rows in the table or not. So far only 20 rows are visible.

    Same problem here. I upload an excel with over 3000 rows but only the first 20 rows is created in dataverse.

    Unfortunately all I can import now is blank rows. To say my access to this is totally f**ked would be an understatement.

    I've tried this waiting 10 hours for a 1700 row Sharepoint Online List and Excel Export of the same list.  I only ever get the first 20 rows either way.
