Limited required fields per action

Process Design Form Designer

Hello,

We reached out the limit of required fields per action (in Form Behavior). Is it possible to remove/extend the limit of required fields per action?

Thank you,

Hi Marina,

It’s not possible to change the limit. Each time you set a field as Required, this gets added to the parameter FORM_FIELDS_REQUIRED. Once this parameter reaches 4000 characters, you won’t be able to add additional fields.

For a workaround, you can use wildcard characters * (asterisk) and the exclusion character ^ (caret) directly in the action parameter FORM_FIELDS_REQUIRED.

Let’s say you have a lot of required fields that start with REQUEST_ but you want REQUEST_COMMENT to not be required, in FORM_FIELD_REQUIRED you can have the following instead of adding each field individually:
REQUEST_*,^REQUEST_COMMENT*

This will reduce the number of characters in the parameter, which will allow you to put more required fields.

For more information, you can consult this document:
