Limit Component

Constrain the number of records passing through the pipeline.

Last updated:

The Limit Component is used to truncate your dataset. This is useful for performance optimization or for extracting a "Top X" sample of your data.

⚙️ Configuration

  • Limit: The maximum number of records to allow through (e.g., 100).
  • Offset: (Optional) Skip the first N records.

🚀 Use Cases

  • Sampling: Only process the first 10 records while building your transformation logic.
  • Pagination: Use Limit and Offset together to paginate through a large dataset.
  • Performance: Prevent the browser from rendering too many items in a table or chart.

💡 Pro Tip

Always place a Limit component at the beginning of your pipeline when working with files over 50MB to keep the interface snappy during development.
