What is the result of having a 'record limit' set in the Input Data tool?

Setting a 'record limit' in the Input Data tool dictates a maximum number of records that will be imported into the workflow. When this limit is applied, if the dataset contains more records than the specified limit, only a subset of the total records will be imported, meaning that some records will not be included in the analysis. This is particularly useful in scenarios where a user may want to work with a smaller sample of a large dataset for testing or to improve processing performance.

Consequently, if the record limit is set, the import process will intentionally skip over the excess records that exceed this limit. This ensures that the process stays within the defined boundaries, potentially impacting the comprehensiveness of the dataset available for analysis but allowing for more manageable data handling.
