Powerapps - Working with lists greater than 500 items

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 46

Hello,

 

I have been trying to figure out what i am doing wrong in my App. I am importing a list greater than 500 tiems and getting the blue line error "Part of this formala cannot be evaluated remotely ****". I have discovered on this forum this is to help maintain performance on an app, and any data source should be filtered to less than 500 items.

 

I have done this using the formula below attached to the items section of a gallary.

 

Filter(Sort('Workflow Tasks'|ID|Descending)|Modified>Date(2017|08|01) && AssignedTo.DisplayName=User().FullName)

 

In the Gallary this returns 1 item, which is correct. however i am still getting the blue line notification, see below.

Perhaps i am filtering this data source in the wrong location, do we need to filter at the start point or maybe via a collection.

 

The data source is a Sharepoint list.

 

Any help you can give me would be much appreciated.

 

Ronan

    hi

     

    sorry about that:

     

    SharePoint can be Filter with "StartsWith" and "="

    These "operands" can be used with "&&" and "||"  (and / or statements)

     

    Table for data sources and delegation

    https://powerapps.microsoft.com/en-us/tutorials/delegation-list/

     

    (just technicaly from my experience, its is limitation both PowerApps and SharePoint .. (because on sharepoint yes it is possible to call CAML query with > and <.. but via another technology, not PowerApps)

     

     

    I read again your usage and I would do:

    • ClientSide: DownLoad for example all data from sharepoint and order by dateTime using SortByColumns ... then i would run localy RemoveIf on collection to delete records with older date then 2017.08.01 (wrong format sorry)
    • ServerSide: adjust server side ... add workflow on sharepoint online with "If field Date >= 2017.08.01" set "FilterColumn1" to 1 ... and now, yes it is possible to make Filter with (FilterColumn=1) which allow user to download data via delegation (serverSide execution, just results are retrieveing via network)
