we need to store long encrypted string in Lookup object. We have added Encrypted text field to the object, but when try to save string, get an error: "Maximum text length exceeded (1674/500)"
How is it possible to save long text in encrypted text field?
We have registered the idea and forwarded it for consideration to the responsible team for further review and release in one of the upcoming versions.
Currently, only workarounds at the client's business logic level are possible: either using a regular text field with maximum length and performing encryption of the value before saving and decryption after retrieval at the business logic level, or using two "Secure Text" fields and splitting your string into two substrings, storing them in the two fields, and concatenating them upon retrieval.
