Minimum/Maximum Number of Characters in a Field

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.

Not within the forms. You can set the limit for the property but not from the form so the form ignores the property set limit.

 

Under the validation rules on the property:

Specify what values are allowed for this property. These rules apply when creating, editing, and importing records with the CRM.

Hi team, 

 

I know this feature is now live, I am just sad to realise it's not possible to use it on default properties. For me, this feature would be super beneficial for the phone numbers, but because the 'Phone number' property is a default property in HubSpot, I am unable to set these rules. 

 

Thank you!

desde 2022 que el director de producto dice que se va a implementar en todos los campos de los formularios.... ¿seguiremos esperando eternamente?

Hi team, any updates on this? The last update in 2023 said that "We are currently working to get this enforced on forms as well and should be deployed soon. We will keep you all posted." Huge issue for us as leads who submit specific fields on our intake form need to adhere to a 500 character limit or else our contact records won't sync to other platforms. This happens regularly.

I know forms has a new beta, have you been able to require property character limits in forms? This is really essential to our business process. Thanks for all your hard work!

Dear HS Team,

I hope this message finds you well.

I am writing to follow up on a development feature that was promised by Bryan on June 16, 2017, concerning the limitation of input text fields on our forms. As you may be aware, we currently have 76 active forms and a customer base of 10,000+. Our customers, who are not particularly technical, frequently attach numerous documents such as diplomas, courses, and certificates into the Input Text Fields. This practice is creating a significant processing challenge for our team.

Given the critical impact on our operations, we would greatly appreciate it if this development feature could be prioritized and addressed as soon as possible.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Best regards

Hi -

 

The last "we are working on this" was over a year ago. Any updates on timeline?

@IMcDonald that public beta link takes me to what looks like an internal HS login page.

I don't seem to be able to log in there. Can you walk us through how to find the opt-in? (Maybe in a "For Dummies" format. 😉)

Hi If you go to the Products Update page and put forms in the Beta section then there are a few new options to enrol into
