Hi everyone!
Currently i am working on a custom playbook for onboarding and i need to use some Questionnaire Activity Definitions. The problem i have is, that the Question input is not long enough to have our questions inserted.
I treid to look at the dictionary entry for the Activity Definition but i am not sure if it is the right place to look at and which record i need to touch.
I have added a screenshot.
Thanks in advance!
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hello, unfortunately it does not seem to be possible to increase the label just for your playbook, as this is hardcoded to 50 max characters in the dictionary. You can find this information by looking at the following :
- Go to sys_pd_process_definition, find your playbook
- Click to the questionnaire activity in the Activities Related list
- Click on the user form for data collection field
- Open the record, open the record in the related list Flow Data Variables
- Check the label size in the dictionary for the flow data variable table, and validate it is 50
I am not recommending to increase the size as this could have other implications and you might change out of the box behavior, but for this demonstration I did change the dictionary of the label to be 100:
Again just because it can be done, does not mean it should be done, evaluate with your requirement if the length can be reduced, or you can use other activity to provide some additional information so that you can use a smaller label on your question.
Hope this helps 🙂

Please try by changing the max length.

Hi Nehal!
This will only change the length of the answer to the question. It does not allow to make the question longer

Hi @Nehal Dhuri & @Ankur Bawiskar,
this unfortunately has no impact on the question input. Only the answer string will be set longer.
