Is there any limitation inside the Lookup field in one to many relation


We have a Tasks table which contain around 10,000 records, and Customers table which contain around 250 records. We built a Many to Many relation between the 2 tables. Then inside a canvas app we will show 2 drop-downs:

  • Customers
  • Tasks

So, the user can relate the related Customers with the related Task. Can the drop-down inside a canvas app show 10,000 items for the tasks? Or I will get a threshold error (sorry I am coming from a SharePoint :( ).

Thanks


Solution

  • The default limit for the number of items that can be displayed in a dropdown or lookup field is 500 items. However, this limit can be increased to a maximum of 2,000 items by modifying the settings in the Power Apps admin center.

    In your case with Tasks table of more than 2,000 items, it is better to implement filtering or search functionality to limit the number of items displayed at once to avoid performance issues.
