ERROR: There are too many custom field options on a custom field. Remove some to add more.

Thomas Grace October 28, 2025

I am receiving this error "There are too many custom field options on a custom field. Remove some to add more."

After looking online I see the limit is 50 custom fields but I definitely do not have 50 custom fields. This automation was working perfectly up until today for some reason.

I have attached screenshots of what it looks like:

Hi @Thomas Grace 

 

Not only is there a limit of 50 custom fields per board, there is also a limit of 50 custom fields in a drop down field type. Your field Customer has hit the limit of 50.

1 simple solution would be to split your customers so you have:

Field 1: Customer (A-M)

Field 2: Customer (N-Z)

 

This should help solve the issue. If you want it to be more scalable, split the fields down further
