[vel123]

Hi...

I am trying to insert more thant 60,000 records throuth Data loader in my instance and there is a berfore insert trigger on that  object..

my question is that ... Is that trigger  fired on all 60,000 records?

I am using SOQL query in trigger, as per governor limits SOQL query handles only 10,000 records ... is it possible to fire on all records ? any one please clarify my doubt .

Hi,

Triggered will be fired for all those 60k records.

Yes. Your trigger will get fired. However as you are using Data Loader, it will upload a batch of 200 records at a time. So your trigger should not hit the limit.

Also,You need to make sure that your Trigger is written to handle bulk data,i.e. your Trigger should be a bulkified one.
