What is the max number of records for a query?

ChrisSergent

I want to restrict what a user can enter into a form field. I could have over 80,000 values for street addresses, but I would like to query and use an autocomplete to make it easier on the user while restricting what they enter. Is a queryTask capable of this?

QueryTask is limited by the configuration on the service. The most Ideal would be to let user enter atleast 3 charaters without trying to get auto complete values. When you have the first 3 Character, your result will be greatly reduces from 80000 to a couple of thousands and it would be easier to display them as suggestions.

Hope this helps.

PS: I would have some rest service to get me the values only.
