Getting 256 rows limit from Excel

Posted on by 86

Hi folks,

 

I have an excel file with 524 records. When getting the records to insert in an sql database I'm just getting 256 limit. I have set the top count to 500, 524, 600 without success. Here is my flow configuration

Could please you check around what is going on?.

    Hi @RezaDorrani ,

     

    I have seen this post before, I have set the top count as it is described in it but the solution is not working.

    Hi @ricardosanchezm 

     

    have you turned on pagination in settings?

    Hi @ricardosanchezm 

    Depending on your needs, you can use the Static Data connector to bring in up to 15000 records from an Excel file in a few seconds.  The resulting table will be read only though.

    Hi @RezaDorrani ,

     

    That's it this option was off in the settings. I thought it was enought to set the top count value and didn't imagine this option existed. Now I can get the 524 as expected.

     

    Thanks!
