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 feature has been delivered and can be set on custom properties. However, at the moment the rules are only enforced on manual entry into actual records within HubSpot. We are currently working to get this enforced on forms as well and should be deployed soon. We will keep you all posted.

I'm happy to report that this Idea is now In Planning! Our team is actively building this feature.
The product development process is always filled with unexpected bumps and hurdles, so I can't give a timeline, but I am confident in saying we'll deliver this feature as soon as possible.

This is a good addition to HubSpot, it will be great if we can have this validation for form fields, IE limiting the number of characters in a field for Postal Code.
*Update: All customers are opted-in to the Beta at this point, so you no longer need to do that step (so directions are out-dated) — but that's good!
But then this feature doesn't work at all on default Hubspot fields — only works on custom fields. That's a needed feature. Here's an example:
If you want to apply a character count limit to say Job Title, to ensure all leads to sync to your CRM which also has a job title character count limit, you can't.

@lnglkcpx This feature is only available on custom properties and HubSpot editable properties. It isn't currently available on HubSpot read-only definition properties.
Am I missing something? This only limits the character limit when editing the field directly in the contact properties, not when a user submits a form. Is there an additional setting somewhere?

This feature is essential for our proper utilisation of membership application forms (for text fields). Therefore, it would be great to have a solution soon!
