N00b Q: Amount of rows/colums in excel table around 20 000, only first 500 searched

I've built my first app using an Excel spreadsheet saved to OneDrive as the data source.

 

About 20 000 rows and 8 columns (basically a list of names and demorgaphics I want to be able to quickly search via the app)

 

I understand from searching that there is a 500 / 2000 row limit for searching

 

What's the best way around this limit so my app can search all tghe rows (preferably with a really simple ste-by-step guide)

    Hi @RPNZ,

     

    So far Excel delegation is still not yet supported.

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/delegation-overview

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/delegation-list

     

    There are a number of other data sources that do support delegation - such as SharePoint, SQL, Dynamics 365 etc. You could consider moving to one of these data sources in order to get delegation support.

     

    Regards,

    Mona
