Error:"The attempted operation is prohibited because it exceeds the list view threshold enforced by the administrator."

This article is obsolete and only applies to SQList versions released before 4.0

SQList uses the Modified column to detect which items in a list need to be synchronised onto the SQL table.

When a list contains several thousands items, you could see this error in the SQList log: "The attempted operation is prohibited because it exceeds the list view threshold enforced by the administrator."

This problem and its resolution are described in this support article: Perfomance and throttling settings

To increase performances, we recommend that you follow those steps for all lists that contain several thousands items, whether you get the error or not.
