 I have a MySQL table in which one of the fields has a TEXT datatype (char limit 65535). Unfortunately, the data I&amp;#39;m receiving for this field may exceed the char limit. 
 I&amp;#39;ve changed this field&amp;#39;s datatype to (MySQL) MEDIUMTEXT (limit of 16Million</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 12</generator><item><title>RE: CDT field's type TEXT vs Database field's data type MEDIUM TEXT</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/60055?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 06 Sep 2018 13:54:08 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:423eedf4-c537-4aaf-bdd4-9f58cc3bd955</guid><dc:creator>yeswanththiyarir</dc:creator><description>Hi Sebastian,&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Could you please try updating the column definition as MEDIUMTEXT in the JPA of the CDT  via downloaded xsd file as follows and try to verify and re-publish the datastore again.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;xsd:annotation&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
          &amp;lt;xsd:appinfo source=&amp;quot;appian.jpa&amp;quot;&amp;gt;@Column(name=&amp;quot;Column_Name&amp;quot;, columnDefinition=&amp;quot;MEDIUMTEXT&amp;quot;)&amp;lt;/xsd:appinfo&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;/xsd:annotation&amp;gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: CDT field's type TEXT vs Database field's data type MEDIUM TEXT</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/59988?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 05 Sep 2018 09:55:26 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:07c12d1c-43df-49ab-be1d-a3fe9f588683</guid><dc:creator>sebastienj</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Well, a few minutes more of searching by myself and I found the solution.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I downloaded the CDT&amp;#39;s XSD, and added the following annotation to the field:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, courier;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;xsd:annotation&amp;gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, courier;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;xsd:appinfo source=&amp;quot;appian.jpa&amp;quot;&amp;gt;@Column(columnDefinition=&amp;quot;mediumtext&amp;quot;)&amp;lt;/xsd:appinfo&amp;gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:&amp;#39;courier new&amp;#39;, courier;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;/xsd:annotation&amp;gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When I &amp;quot;verify&amp;quot; the datastore now, it&amp;#39;s all fine.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
