Multifield dialog limitation of authoring [AEM 6.5]

Question

Hi All,We have migrated content from one platform to another.the number of fields migrated to multifield dialog is around 3287~ where as if we open the component we can able to see the dialog till 2992~ and after that the remaining fields or content are not visible. Does anyone faced the same issue or it seems that there could be some limitation of authoring in multifield.if yes, then do we have any documentation of authoring limitation. Or any suggestion to overcome from this issue. Thanks @kautuk_sahni   @lukasz-m SolutionI would like to add one more solution to this problem is when we have a huge data set in multifield which can't be modified because of migration limitaion, and we observe the values did not showed up after some points as UI get break,  and in error log we can see the Exception:org.apache.sling.api.request.TooManyCallsException: /libs/granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/field/field.jsp in order to resolve that we can always increase the Number of Calls per Request from ConfigMgr based on requirement.

@tushaar_srivastavaFirst things first, I think giving a dialog with 3,000+ authored values is a very bad design approach. It will be a nightmare for authoring. I understand this came as part of migration , but I think the component should have been designed foreseeing these. If you're designing a solution where you expect thousands of values to be authored, I would request you to re-evaluate the requirements and redesign this component. Having said that, I can't speak to any dialog maximum field restriction. However, for multi-fields, we add values as child nodes. So, I believe it's more or less related to performance and the limit of child nodes. There's a similar discussion on the maximum number of child nodes possible in JCR. Please check this response from @joerghoh  https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/adobe-experience-manager/maximum-number-of-nodes-on-crx-aem-can-have-without-performance/m-p/550989/highlight/true#M136786 Also read his blog  here https://cqdump.joerghoh.de/2022/07/05/whats-the-maximum-size-of-a-node-in-jcr-aem/ ThanksVeena ✌

Hi @tushaar_srivastava ,There is no as such max limit for multifield data but its advisable to not use multifiled for huge set of data.You can try to store it in excel and then upload it in DAM.Also when you open the dialog for multifield can you inspect and check the DOM elements as what's the count there? If multifield item count is same in DOM structure then somewhere its missing from UI dialog view.ThanksTarun
