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.

This would be extremely helpful for gathered content from clients (testimonials, etc.)

Yes! We would like to be able to enforce a minimum word or character count on a multi-line text field that requires people to type a certain amount of words/characters in order to submit the form. This is crucial for our lead evaluatiojn. Those who type less in the form field are our weaker leads, and we'd like to weed them out in the beginning.

Hi team,

Commenting on behalf of a customer here.

It would be useful for us to set a minumum length for a text field to prevent invalid data from being entered (e.g. spaces, hyphens). While custom validation with the onFormSubmit function is a workaround, it may be tedious for users with multiple forms to manage this.

Thanks for looking into this!

This would be great, as I've had a customer request this exact thing 🙂

I'm also having issues syncing to other platforms that would be solved by imposing a character limit. Any chance we can get this implemented?

Please add this solution. It is causing issues with our finance system. A maximum character length for a field in HubSpot would solve the issue.

Very useful idea and an essential feature but sad to see that this hasn't been implemented even after 4 years of idea submission.

Please add this as an option. This is an essential option for many types of integrations.

Please add this feature.  It is breaking the Jira integration without having character limits.  Seems like standard functionality that should be included.

Adding request for support to this thread. There are difficulties with Salesforce sync that are an issue.

being able to format, require minimum/maximum word counts would be extremely beneficial for our data integrity.

 

Use case: Phone numbers, application form properties (we need the customer to provide us better information ) ect.

I agree with this. It's an extra level that would really assist our qualification process.

Definitely needed, for example to stop people simply skipping 'first name' fields with one letter. This would help us ensure our database is clean by setting minimum characters in specific fields for our forms

Please add character limits. It would be very, very helpful for our use of the forms.
