#6 Length limit to be added for property values

Effective date:took effect on
Components affected:Data model
Announcement:

A soft length limit in Unicode codepoints has been added for all properties. These can be seen in the data dictionary. The goal of this is to make it easier for data consumers to import our data into systems with fixed-length column types.

Property values are not yet guaranteed to be limited to this value, but our tooling now alerts us when values are longer than this, so that we can identify sources which don’t adhere to sensible limits and eventually enforce hard limits.

Imposing a length limit has also identified many instances where the data required further cleaning, which we've implemented as needed.
