Table list from SQL Server is cut-off when creating virtual table

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 8

Hello community!

 

I'm at a loss. I want to create a virtual table from our SQL server but I can't find or look for the tables I need.

The list of our tables just got cut-off after approximately 400 - 500 tables and I can't even look for it in the search bar. I will get a message that the table can't be found.

 

The list just gets cut-off at around 1/3 of the tables of our databank:

The tables I need are pretty far down alphabetically.

I have full admin rights so I should be able to see all the tables.

 

Is there any way I could create a virtual table? Import is no option since I need live data.

I'm at make.powerapps.com in my environment at tables.

 

Hopefully, someone can help me!

    Hi @Marco97,
    That's too bad, I'm sure MS are aware of this limitation but I would submit a Microsoft support ticket at https://admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com/support 
    Fortunately, there are other ways to create virtual tables, commonly with the classic UI using the entity catalog, see these steps: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/maker/data-platform/create-virtual-tables-using-connectors?tabs=sql&WT.mc_id=DX-MVP-5004271#create-the-data-source

    Hope this helps!
