AEM Content Fragments: Dropdown Limits in Metadata Schemas?

Q: On AEM 6.4.2 for Content Fragments, are there any item count limits for Dropdowns menu items in custom Metadata Schemas?

I am not seeing all of the entries in my file.

I've defined the entries of the Dropdown using an external json file as follows.

Method based on this blog post:

Ahh ok, For me it is not showing any error while clicking on add manually and loading parsed JSON options. I tried in AEM 6.4

And I can see all the options in dropdown, I tired for 251 options.

As Arun pointed out, this seems to work - if you are not getting the same results - could be a bug. Please open a support ticket.

Also, the total number of menu entries in this JSON file is 250.

Hello Arun,

I ran the json file through https://jsonlint.com/ and it is Valid.

Also, clicking on Add manually does not read the json file:

Hi,

Can you click on Add Manually options and see if you can see all the values of JSON there, if not there could be issue with your JSON file.

I tried for almost 50 options, can see all.
