If you choose to use the <apex:pageBlockTable />
to render your table you are normally limited to 1000 items in the collection that it iterates over.
If you set the readOnly
attribute on the <apex:page
tag with a true
value - this limit is increased to 10,000 records in the collection.
<apex:page readOnly="true" ...>
<!-- your markup with not more than 10,000 items in the collection -->
</apex:page>
If you have more than 10,000 records in your webservice response collection, you will need to do this client-side with an ajax request and then populate the page with a table on your own, not using a pageBlockTable
tag.
Salesforce Documentation - apex:page tag
readOnly: A Boolean value that enables read-only mode for a Visualforce page. In read-only mode, a page may not execute any DML operations, but the limit on the number of records retrieved is relaxed from 50,000 to 1 million rows. It also increases the number of items in a collection that can be handled by iteration components, from 1,000 to 10,000. If not specified, this value defaults to false.
