Procedure
To enter documentation for an artifact:
- Open the artifact in Process Designer.
- Switch to the Overview tab.
- Enter your text in the Documentation field.
What to do next
Restriction: The documentation field allows a
maximum of 200,000 characters, including hidden formatting characters.
Long documentation that approaches this limit can impact performance.
Consider the following options:
- Reduce the size of the documentation.
- Simplify the formatting, such as removing tables and text formatting.
- Move the documentation content to a separate file and link to or attach the file. See Linking to external information.
