Length limitation in field #183

Closed winniewyweng closed 1 year ago

winniewyweng commented 2 years ago

While I put many items in the field, the warning message shows up and save for the page is not allowed. So I was guided to the github page. Is it possible to fix the issue? Or any workaround can be provided? image

@winniewyweng have you hit the following limitation? https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/organizations/settings/work/customize-process-field?view=azure-devops#add-a-picklist

winniewyweng commented 2 years ago

I am using extension of multiple select on the picklist. So now it is around 19 items as multiple selected items in the field to get the warning, and the option format is like "2023 ABCDE". Does it hit the limitation of field length by 256 characters?

MOlausson commented 2 years ago

Sounds like it may be an issue with the field length. What version of Azure DevOps are you on?

winniewyweng commented 2 years ago

Where can I check the version? I am using the DevOps website but not using Azure DevOps sever.

MOlausson commented 2 years ago

@winniewyweng then you are on the cloud version of Azure DevOps. How many items do you have in the select list (not the selected items)?

winniewyweng commented 2 years ago

@MOlausson 172 items in the list. The critical point of selected item count to hit the limitation is not always the same. So I am wondering it is related to field length instead of item numbers.
