Geotagging\Geo Searching and List Size

ZorbaConlen1

Hi. I'm wondering about limits on number of items in a list for geotagging and geo searching. Is there a maximum number of list items supported? Is there a likelihood of performance degradation with larger lists. 

The list of interest is approaching 5k and would be expected to grow larger, over time. 

On a similar note, are there documented or practical limits on the size of documents that can be geotagged or searched?

Thanks

Thanks for posting your question on Esri Community.

Correct me if I am wrong, am assuming you are trying to geotag documents to a SharePoint list layer added to the ArcGIS web part in SharePoint, right?

As far as geotagging goes, there's no limitation that we have encountered or observed in the Microsoft documentation. But we are aware of a SharePoint limitation on Geosearch or native SharePoint search. If you are viewing the search results in a "list" view, and if the search returns more than 5000 items, SharePoint online runs into a throttling error (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/troubleshoot/lists-and-libraries/items-exceeds-list-view-threshold). We also had a customer report an issue on this related topic and they have built a custom web part which can communicate with the ArcGIS web part. Please refer to the below blog,

https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-for-sharepoint-blog/using-dynamic-data-extensibility-feature-to/ba-p/1251518

 

You can build a custom web part which will show the results of the "Geosearch" operation and thus avoid the native SharePoint limitation on the search results displayed.

 

Please let us know if you have any further questions.

 

Thanks & Regards,
