I am trying to create a zap which works in the following manner:

Trigger: New folder in my Sharepoint location

Action: I created a Zapier table with all existing folders and I want it updated automatically in the table once a new folder is created.

This is the error message I get: Error code: Error while retrieving: undefined: The attempted operation is prohibited because it exceeds the list view threshold.

How can I modify the view settings in SharePoint to handle larger datasets?

 

Thank you,

Barbara

Hi there @Barbara_barbara,

I did some digging into this, and it seems like Microsoft SharePoint has a limit of 5,000 items in a folder which can sometimes cause issues. I believe this is a limitation with Microsoft SharePoint.

You can learn more about that here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/manage-large-lists-and-libraries-b8588dae-9387-48c2-9248-c24122f07c59?ui=en-us&rs=en-us&ad=us

Hopefully, this helps!
