Is this Note to long for the Nextcloud App?

First, congratulations to your wedding!

Let me try it :-)

Is this Note to long for the Nextcloud App?

For me it was truncated at "Petra". But it did not crashed…

@nextcloud/server-triage do we have a limit on notes?

[weinic]

I Test it 3 days ago. For me is the same, the App dont crasht, but the Text also truncated at "Petra"

Maybe something in the program code has changed so that the app no ​​longer crashes because I've already updated the app since then.

[blizzz]

at least in the database oc_share.note is not limited. not sure about the biz logic.

[tobiasKaminsky]

Notes are updated on share by sending them to /ocs/v2.php/apps/files_sharing/api/v1/shares as request entitty, .eg. note=123 Can it be that this is limited?

[kesselb]

I created a public share on https://try.nextcloud.com and set the note via web. That worked and is using the same api as the android app. Maybe @weinic could clarify if this is happening only with the android app or web as well.

[weinic]

@kesselb it is only with the Andoid App. In the web it is no Problem.

[tobiasKaminsky]

@kesselb can you point me to the web code how the note is updated? As stated above we add this as request entity note=123 and this might be limited?

[tobiasKaminsky]

Found the problem. It is about "&", which was not escaped correcty… Fix will be in android-library.
