Maximum Password Length

I'm hearing that Appian does not accept passwords that are 22 characters long.

What is the maximum length for the password of an Appian user account?

Is this published officially anywhere?  (I did not see it on the Administration Console documentation page.)

Thank you.

    Not Officially Documented. But i can’t see any limitation at-least 22 characters.

    So, I just stopped at 100 characters. Why are you looking for this?

    Because I am hearing of login issues with user ids that are long.

    Sorry.... passwords... not user ids.

    This is the official Java API documentation, and it does not mention any restrictions in length.
