Labels, file names

IBM® CMIS for Content Manager supports up to 255 characters for labels (file names) for client applications.

Unconverted item types are limited by the length defined for the particular attribute mapped for a file name based on the particular item type. The mapped name attribute can be the OriginalFileName field on resource items and document parts, representative attribute, or other custom attribute. The repository is limited only by the attribute definitions in the repository that store the file name.

Applications and operating systems might impose different limits affecting only that application or operating system. The application is responsible for handling file name lengths that it does not support or are not supported on the particular operating system, including handling existing items that are created by other applications without the limitation.
