Change of length for job title and location fields

jobdataapi.com v4.4 / API version 1.8.3

0 min read · Oct. 6, 2024

The API has been updated to extend the lengths of the title and location fields for job objects. The title field has increased from 150 characters to 200 characters, while the location field has been extended from 250 characters to 300 characters. These adjustments provide more space for detailed job titles and locations.

If you are using fixed-size char or varchar fields in your database please check if you need to update the definitions of these fields accordingly to avoid data truncation or errors during data insertion. Additionally, any downstream processes that rely on the previous field lengths should be reviewed to ensure compatibility with the updated API response structure.
