Ability to require minimum/maximum number of charcters in a form field. This would prevent users from entering a “space” to get through the required field. My application is for a zip code, where the user must enter 5 characters.
I like this concept. If you could control the format of a field as well for things like phone numbers. This way everything is entered the same way no matter who enters it.
I’m glad that this is on the idea forum. We have a critical need for min/max number of characters for the postal code to validate that the code is legit. We divvy leads out to our sales team by the first three digits of a zip code. We use smart lists to segment leads by sales rep and then workflows to route the lead alert. However, if someone from Boston enters 2141 instead of 02141, this totally messes up our lead routing logic. The lead goes to our sales rep covering Baltimore (where zips begin with 214) instead of to our rep covering Boston (where zips begin with 021).
Help!
This is needed on forms. It seems that this is a pretty common feature on other platforms, forms on WordPress for example.
I am asking people for short tips, but have no way to enforce the length of thier submissions.
I vote for this feature.

Agreed, this is a basic functionality in Marketo, but is missing in hubspot for some reason. Please add this function in a way that doesn’t require hard coding it onto the form.
up !
100% with you !
Up! 100%, Let me know when this is created, I’ll be happy to use it and give feedback for improvements.
I’d like have it too
+1! I need this feature
I think it would be a good idea to have the option to impose a character limit for single line text properties.
We recently had an issue where answers on a certain form field were over 2000 characters wouldn’t process in our CRM (integrated to HubSpot). We are making the adjustment on the CRM’s end, but it would be cool to have that option in HubSpot as well.
Yes - We have Salesforce integration issues because we cannot limit to 55 characters for address.
Yes, I would like to know if there are any way to control the character limit of text fied in Hubspot form?
When using it for “Contact” property, it must have a character limit. Its a basic functionality which is missing in HubSpot, please do try to implement it.
Yes we really need this, in terms of security concerns
Our hubspot is connected to quickbooks. Quickbooks limits the number of charactors you can use in a company name + full address. We constantly have sync issues because QB cannot accept such a long string of characters so then reps have to go back in to resolve, touching records multiple times unnecessarily.
If we could set the max characters for fields such as Company Name and our Billing Address info (basically any text based field) this would be a life saver!
@lnglkcpx It’s causing issues with our QuickBooks syncing as well. Being able to set a maximum character length for a field in HubSpot would be very helpful.
character and/or word limit, please
This would be extremely helpful for gathered content from clients (testimonials, etc.)
