Size of attribute types Text and Textarea

Svante Gustafsson December 11, 2017

Hey,

I haven't found what limits the two Insight attribute-types Text and Textarea have.

Is it declared somewhere?

Cheers,

Hi Svante, 

The limit for Text is 450, and unlimited for Textarea.

I have updated the documentation at https://documentation.riada.se/insight/latest/insight-manager-s-guide/object-type-attributes to show this limits.

Best Regards

254 characters for text and then whatever your database can handle in a large object column (i.e far more text than is generally useful in a field)

Hey Nic,

Thnx! But this is for JIRA, right? I tagged this question for Insight for JIRA which seems to have been removed.

 I will re-tag this question!

Cheers,

Thnx Alexander, this was exactly what I was looking for. Is this piece of information available in the Insight documentation somewhere?

Can you convert your comment reply to an Answer so that I can Accept it?
