    Hi, we're seeing our exception Messages truncated in Performance Reporting. Is there a maximum character limit for the message portion of an exception?

    It appears the limit is around 255 characters. This is causing a problem for something like JSON deserialization error where we want to see our complete message to look for problematic characters or syntax, but our custom message gets truncated.

    Hi! You're correct that there's currently a 255 character limit on the exception message, and there is also a 65535 character limit on the stack trace field. However, we're in the testing phase of an update that will remove these limits, so stay tuned.

    Any updates on the removal of these limits. It would be great for us as we could post the full WebRequest form and view exactly what was sent.

    Thanks :)

    @Jilljoy --- The 255 character limit on the exception message no longer exists. However, if your exception message is large it won't necessarily display nicely on the dashboard.
