To resolve this error, create a custom setting ShowActivityFeedActionsInBatchesOf in Remedyforce Settings and assign a batch value to load the required number of activities. You can set any value between 10 to 100.

For example, if the setting is set to 20, then only 20 activities are shown at the first load. To view the next set of activities, click Show More Activities.

If the setting does not exist, Activity Feed might show this error.
