As previously announced, field validation will be enforced when creating external contacts and organizations.
The length limit for the following fields will be set for (1,1000):
External Organizations:
- name
- externalSystemUrl
External Contacts:
- firstName
- middleName
- lastName
- salutation
- title
- externalSystemUrl

Change Context
Enforcing field validation rules and consistent behaviour at the platform level, protects stability and allows us to develop new features (like the upcoming enhanced CSV import) and support a larger number of contacts.
Change Impact
Creating contacts and organizations with field values exceeding field limits will be rejected with a 422 error.
