Get record count in Azure DocumentDb

Question

It seems like \'select count(*) from c\' in the SQL queries allowed by documentdb in the azure site and through the documentdb explorer (https://studiodocumentdb.codeplex.com/)

Answer 1

This is possible in the same way you write SQL query now,

SELECT VALUE COUNT(1) FROM myCollection

NOTE: COUNT(1) won't work for a huge datasets.
