Increase custom field name character limit from 200 to 400

What is the challenge?

Intake forms sometimes require lengthy questions based on the context

What is the impact?

Cannot replace existing stakeholder intake forms used in the business with Aha! ideas portals

Describe your idea

  1. Increase the custom field name character limit from 200 to 400

  2. Allow custom fields to have different "terminology" to appear different in the form, allowing the actual custom field name to appear in Aha! with less than 200 characters but the display of the same custom field to be greater than 200 in the portal submission form

    We are unlikely to prioritize this idea in the near future. We recommend a best practice of keeping the field name/question to 200 characters, ideally less. And using the field description to provide more context, which appears as a tooltip next to the field. You can customize both the field name and description in your portal's terminology settings.

      can you make the maximum number of characters as customizable per workspace or account. Some orgs may need 400 and some may need to keep it as 600. Hence its preferable to keep it as customer settings.
