Workflow Variable Limit

Hi,

 

We are trying to add variables in the - 'Add Variables' section of the workflow and move them from - 'available' to 'selected', even after updating and publishing the workflow, the variables are not getting added.

If someone could please help on this and let know the reason

 

Kind regards

I have run into this - it's a character limit in the slushbucket field.  Navigate to Workflow -> Activity Definitions in the left nav.  View the "Catalog Task" record.  On the "Activity Variables" related list, personalize the list layout to add the Max length column.  Note that the "task_variables" record has a maximum length of 4000.  Make this bigger to accommodate more variables in the slush bucket. I have used a value of 10000.

Thank you so much Brad ! I will try this 

When increasing that value to 10,000 in the Catalog task activity New activity form, the variables slushbucket has disappeared. Did anyone else have this issue ? Even if I revert the value back to 4,000 the available variables section still doesnt re-appear. Ive done a unified cache clear but still not seeing the section to add variables in that step.
