What's new

Form actions maximum limit

Form actions now can now have a maximum size of 1MB. You can receive the following errors, depending on the scenari:

• Creating a Form task in Studio Desktop that exceeds the 1MB limit throws the following error: "Form task variable size is larger than maximum supported size (1MB)."
• Saving or completing a Form action in Action Center that exceeds the 1MB limit throws the following error: "This task exceeds the task size limit of 1MB. Please reach out to your automation admin to prevent workflow failures in the future."

Validator notes

When working with Document Validation Actions, you can now enable Validator Notes for each field in Taxonomy Manager. When enabled, you can set notes on these fields, and they are displayed to the human validator. If the notes are set as editable, the validator can edit them and communicate information back to the automation, through a new ExtractionResult object property. Visit Load Taxonomy to learn how to apply validator notes, and streamline your document validation process in Action Center.
