Is OneAgent Event name max length 250? How to work around? iOS

grabz — Wed, 17 May 2023 14:19:54 GMT

I'm using the reportEvent API of iOS (https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/platform-modules/digital-experience/mobile-applications/instrument-ios-app/customization/oneagent-sdk-for-ios#report-event). It gets logged on the web dashboard under User Sessions ("User action analysis"), but the event name value is seemingly maximalized to 250 characters.

1.)Is this just a display issue (bug?), or

2.) a display max length on this screen ("User action analysis") is set, but somewhere else can be checked, or

3.) I should use some other reporting API (value?) for longer strings?

Hi,

this is a defined size limit - the answer is in the documentation you linked and is same for actions and events:
For a mobile custom action or a mobile autogenerated user action, the maximum name length is 250 characters
So the only workaround is to adapt the reported string to contain the necessary information in those 250 characters
