--------------------------------
Summary: Creating/Updating a Delivery Service via API has length
constraint on displayName of 48, but no such constraint in UI code
Key: TC-500
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TC-500
Project: Traffic Control
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Traffic Ops API
Affects Versions: 2.1.0
Reporter: Robert Scrimo
Creating/Updating a Delivery Service via API code has length constraint on
`displayName` of 48, but there is no such constraint in the UI code so any user
can update the value to more than 48 characters. The Database field is Text
which is described as "variable unlimited length" in the Postgres
documentation. However, this may be limited by the GUI field if such a
constraint exists.
NOTE: The GET methods for /api/1.2/deliveryservices does not check the length
on the `displayName` field, so, it will return whatever is in the database for
`displayName`.
Work Around: Upon getting the Delivery Service information from the API, in
order to update/create the Delivery Service via the API you will need to limit
the number of characters in the `displayName` to 48.
NOTE: Other versions of Traffic Ops may be affected.
