Creating a product field of type Link creates a nvarchar(255) in the database, but links can be up to 2048 characters, so when programatically setting links with that are longer, it will fail.

Hi Bjørn

I can see that. You can change the field directly in the database - that should work all the way through.

I will send this to Søren - PM for PIM and see if we should change this.

Thanks, Nicolai

Hi Bjørn,

Created feature request (24594), to make change on this field type.

Workaround is, as NP mention, that you change it directly in database

Yes we ended up creating a Long text field and then later changing the field type to Link in the database, and it works.
