We were posting some long answers in our channel using the client.chat_postMessage API using blocks. But we see that the entire message is not populating in the display, instead we see the message partially and need to click on see more button to view the entire message.

I had a few questions,

  1. What is the character limit for this function feature.
  2. How can we change the character limit from the code base
  3. How to disable this fuction

Hi @PrajwalNaik07, thanks for asking the question.

What is the character limit for this function feature.

As far as I know, there is no public information about the details. Also, the client app may apply further adjustments for the sake of achieving better user experience at any time.

How can we change the character limit from the code base

Unfortunately, there is no way to customize the behavior for 3rd party apps.

How to disable this fuction

This is also not feasible.

I know this is not a great answer for you, but I hope this clarifies. Since there is no further information I can share at this moment, let me close this issue now. Thanks again for submitting this question!
