Getting an error that the value of the field is too long. What is the max length? Is this a bug or can I do something to fix it?

Field Definition:

<FIELD name="Products" refname="Sonlinc.Products" type="String" reportable="dimension">
  <SUGGESTEDVALUES expanditems="true">
    <GLOBALLIST name="Sonlinc.Products" />
  </SUGGESTEDVALUES>
</FIELD>

  <Inputs>
    <Input Id="FieldName" Value="Sonlinc.Products" />
  </Inputs>
</ControlContribution>

To support longer values you should use a field with type PlainText instead.

For single line text field and one of the value of the picklist field, the max length is 255.
