RTC Enumeration list multi select field maxed out.
I currently have a custom attribute in RTC that we are using as an enumeration list with a multi select field. We have been using this attribute for 3.5 years before running into this issue. We have hit a limit on the amount a user can select from the multi select drop-down. We believe this is due to the enumeration list having a medium string attribute type limit. We need the ability to select more than 1000 bytes maximum in the multi select drop-down. Is there any way to work around this? Here is the error we are receiving:
One answer
This cannot be changed as per:
Allow string size for enumeration List type to be configurable
