How to solve issues around Quickbase response size limitation?

Modified on: Tue, Sep 24, 2019 at 3:17 PM

So if the trigger is a Search option that pulls a lot  of data the trigger, it will fail from the back-end without notifications, jobs aren’t even created. But the user will still receive the error email from Workato if it's not disabled. 


There are different kinds of limitation for each application. All aren't the same. For this case, the Quickbase API documentation says:


You can group a maximum of 100 filters in an API_DoQuery call using OR and AND.

Maximum size of XML responses for API calls = 150 MB.

We do have a workaround for this: 

* Reconfigure the settings of your trigger by not retrieving "every" fields of the record. 
* The trigger should only pull the IDs of the records.
* Then using repeat action to loop through each record
