properties getting truncated with a + sign
In Pega Marketing, we've observed two scenarios where our properties are getting truncated with a + sign after 32 characters.
First is in the batch execution report after a campaign run.
The second is when we write the property into a db table/file after a wait shape. When we write the property before a wait shape, it is not truncated (note that the db column size has been set to more than 32 characters). I suspect that when a wait shape is encountered, the value is being saved in a temporary table that can only take 32 characters.
Is there a way to increase this limit to fix the two scenarios described above?
Hi, I am guessing you are referring to an SR property that is written to a batch table and also output to DB table through a template.
By default a text SR property is set to 32 character length. If you need an higher length then you will have to update the properties Max Length value by opening the property in the designer studio. (this configuration is in the advanced tab of the property rule).
Your next campaign run should pickup this value from the configuration and both the scenarios you mentioned should work fine after that config change.
