Hi All,

I want to make character length of a string field of at least 40 character . Is there any way configure it without scripting or we have to approach through script ?

Thank You

@1_DipikaD 

on string field in dictionary you can use max_length to allow max characters

but nothing OOTB is present for minimum length

you will require onChange client script for this.

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

Hi @1_DipikaD 

There is no direct regular expressions, non-scripting way to enforce a minimum length of 40 characters, If you want to avoid writing a script, the only relevant configuration option available on the Dictionary record for a string field is the Max length property, which enforces a maximum limit, not a minimum.

Regular expression are available for only variables fields.

If this helped to answer your query, please mark it helpful & accept the solution.
Thanks!

@1_DipikaD ,

You cannot enforce a minimum length constraint declaratively (OOB) for a String field, you’ll need to use scripting (for example, a Client Script onChange or onSubmit) to check value.length and throw an error or prevent submission if it’s below 40 characters....

Hi @1_DipikaD,
You can set the maximum character length in the Dictionary for that field. However, if you also want to ensure the field contains at least 40 characters, you’ll need to add an onChange client script on field to enforce that.
