Updating list items from excel sheet with more than 10000 items
Hi Everyone,
I am trying to update a SharePoint list from an excel sheet which have more than 10000 entries. I am using rest API for the same. But the problem is like the list is not being updated after 1000 entries and it may be unresponsive and the site will break down. I have two questions:
1. Best possible way to update SharePoint list using rest api without any performance issues
2. If the items is more than 10000 how can we update the list?
