Posted on by JitenderSinghEH 56

Hi All,

 

i have a SQL table with 2million rows and a same sharepoint list with same 2million records.

i need to create one flow which will compare sql records with sharepoint 

and get records which are updated in sql but not in sharepoint

and then last part is updating those records in sahrepoint.

 

i have basic idea of power automate but still i am new to this.

Any idea and advice will be helpful

thanks

    Hi @JitenderSinghEH ,

     

    I'm afraid that flow can not deal with such a huge data table .Cause if we want to compare two tables, we need to use an 'apply to each' to traverse the entire table. But apply to each has a limited number of loops.

     

    I think this link will help you a lot:

    Best Regards,

    Bof

    It is definitely possible with this batch action set-up:

    https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Power-Automate-Cookbook/Batch-Update-SharePoint-List-With-External-Data/td-p/1365410

    But that will make for a rather advanced flow. Any beginner may want to get some help with it.
