What is the back-end variable name for Single Line Text and Multi Line Text variables?

Hello guys!

As the title says, what is the back-end variable name for Single Line Text as well as Multi Line Text variables? 

I am trying to implement a Fix Script that expands the fields from a Single Line to Multi Line if there are more than 70 characters written in the field (otherwise, words tend to get hidden as single line fields are too narrow).

Keep in mind that this regards a Variable Sets with over 500 Single Line Text variables, so it is not convenient for me to change very variable manually. 

Greetings.

Hello @ronro2 ,

Rather than changing the field configuration which is OOB using a script, you can direct change the type for that specific variable from 'Single Line Text' to 'Multi Line Text'. This will not make any issue for words tend to get hidden as single line fields are too narrow.

If the above solution resolve your issue, Please mark the solution as 'Accepted Solution' and also mark it as 'Helpful'. 

Thank You!

Prathamesh.

The thing is, there are over 500 Single Line Variables. So I want a functioning script as it would take too much time and not look good if I was to change very variable individually.
