Power Automate export 1000 rows only

Hello,

 

I'm usign the new Power Automate visual, to export my data to csv file and store in Sharepoint.

 

The probleme is  that this is exporting only the 1000 first rows. Do you know if  there is a solution to bypass this limitation?

 

Thank you

  • Hi Eureka 

    It should not be affected by the configuration in Power BI. For an import mode report, the maximum number of rows that can be exported from the Service to a .CSV file is 30,000. It is very likely to be affected by the Power Automate. Have you ever tried to skip the creation of the intermediate CSV file and create the file directly in SharePoint? Or save the file to other file types such as worksheet?

    You can also post your problem in Power Automate Community to make sure whether there are some limitations on this feature. If you still have some question, please don't hesitate to let me known and please tell me some details of the Actions used in your screenshot.

    Issue is with data already comming from PowerBI to Flow. If you check the raw outputs of very first step of "On Power BI button clicked", JSON contains only 1000 data records.
    I have same issue as well, however, there seems not to be any setting that can be triggered to increase row count neither on PowerBI, neither on PowerAutomate.

    Was this ever solved?  I am having the same issue where I can export only 1,000 rows using the Power Automate Button in PBI.  

  • Natively Power BI has fixed 1000 records, what worked for me is, from the automate execute the query to the flow with the filters that come from Power BI.

    Hi Eureka 

    Did you create a flow in Power Automate to export the data of a Power BI visual? Can you tell me which flow you are using?

      Hello Caiyun,

       Here is the flow I am using. Unfortunately it is extracting only 1000 rows.

    Hi

    Any update on the limitation? I understood the limitation is coming from the "Power Automate" visual in Power BI. Is there a plan to get rid of this limitation or a workaround?

    As a workaround, I have added an Index column in my table so that I can have several Power Automate visual cutting the export but such workaround is acceptable only if we have ~2000/3000 rows (one of my cases) but I have a table with ~35000 rows and here this is not acceptable to cut into 35 visuals...

      Doubt there is solution. Hopefully they would increase in any future release. We made counter of rows that will be sent and informed users to send up to 999.

    Microsoft if the limitation is 1000 records. Could you add to the power automate visual the ability for it to send the "Dax query" that was executed? Then we could use the "run a dax query" in power automate and get more than 1000 records.
