External Authentication IDs are truncated when the value entered has more than 200 characters about bookstack HOT 4 CLOSED

Yeah, ours was created mid 2020. For us, the 180 chars limit is sufficient, we created another group in active directory to group the groups...

Thanks for reporting @cdrfun, this has been patched in bddc6ae to be part of the next release to add validation for this.

During editing, I found that the existing max was 180, not 200. If you're confident it's 200 in your environment (and that's non-modified from default) please let me know as I'd need to do some further investigation.

Hi @ssddanbrown, I've doubled checked with our instance which was updated to 24.05.01 in the meantime. For me it's indeed 200 characters:

I'll update to 24.05.2 later this week and test again.

Ah, okay, I think instances created between 2018 and mid 2021 would have 200 here instead of 180.
Not sure best approach, I don't want to add a whole lot of field-checking complexity to the validation step where this may affect such a narrow scenario. Right now, saving with 180 - 200 on those instances will show validation warnings to users, but the value would remain unless provided under 180 chars.

If that's a significant issue to some we could change the field if really needed.
