https://community.appian.com/discussions/f/general/21312/cdt-text-typeHello, I have a question regarding the text field type within a CDT. This type has a character limit of 255 characters. Is there any way to increase this or is there another type that is used for longer form text such as paragraphs and paragraph fieldsen-USTelligent Community 12https://community.appian.com/thread/83115?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 29 Jun 2021 19:04:31 GMTd3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:375083fc-292d-42ed-962c-05d3c17d3382Stefan Helzle<p>This limit becomes relevant as soon as you persists that CDT to database. Then 4000 is max. For more text, you need to modify the XSD file and add a larger column type like TEXT.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.appian.com/thread/83112?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 29 Jun 2021 15:57:35 GMTd3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:5880c4fe-71c0-4d4f-8163-6c3090f34443Chris<p>Text length is not limited to 255 characters, that is only the default size when building out your CDT in the GUI.&nbsp; AFAIK, max character length is only limited by your database configuration.</p> <p>To increase, simply type in a higher value in the Length field..</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
