URLs in Agreements and LIcenses documents

Owen Stephens

With the Q release, the validation of URL fields in Agreements and Licenses has changed. The URLs to wikis and Jiras, which only resolve internally, are no longer validated. Same happens to file paths. As a result, libraries can no longer save the records where they have entered respective information in the URL field.

Wish: add another field for URLs that don’t fit the validation criteria.

Alternative: allow flexibility in validation

• 2048 characters is the field limit (which is the longest URL browsers accept)
