So the form has to be modified to not return all the data from any list or library with greater than 5,000 items. The first thing I usually do is look at all the data connections and see which ones are set to run on form open - any one of those could be your trouble. Find any SharePoint list or library the form queries and check how many items are in each.</description></item><item><title>Infopath form and SharePoint Online - Need help resolving error "amount of data returned by data connection has exceeded the maximum limit"</title><link>https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/125142.aspx</link><pubDate>Wed, 26 Oct 2022 18:21:17 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">033a2e2d-04e2-4a9d-be01-a4634161eefd:125142</guid><dc:creator>TrayH</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/125142.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=41&amp;PostID=125142</wfw:commentRss><description>I&amp;#39;m somewhat of a noob when it comes to InfoPath and I really need some help with this one. I just started this role a few months ago and inherited a lot of InfoPath forms that I did not design.


I know that this error is due to a data connection pulling too much data. I can see that the form has several data connections to other SharePoint lists. This error just started today and was working fine previously, so I suspect one of the lists that the form is pulling from eventually hit a size that is generating this error.


I don&amp;#39;t know where to turn next as far as resolving this. There is a dropdown at the top of the form which is currently blank due to this problem. I need some help figuring out how to modify the data connection, perhaps to filter it and somehow avoid this error. Or do I instead need to explore deleting some items from the secondary list? The list which the blank dropdown pulls from has 3300 items.


Again, I am very new to InfoPath so any help is appreciated.</description></item></channel></rss>
