    As previously announced, field validation will be enforced when creating external contacts and organizations.

    The length limit for the following fields will be set for (1,1000):

    External Organizations:

    • name
    • externalSystemUrl

    External Contacts:

    • firstName
    • middleName
    • lastName
    • salutation
    • title
    • externalSystemUrl

    Change Category

    API

    Change Context

    Enforcing field validation rules and consistent behaviour at the platform level, protects stability and allows us to develop new features (like the upcoming enhanced CSV import) and support a larger number of contacts. Change Impact

    Creating contacts and organizations with field values exceeding field limits will be rejected with a 422 error.
