We've started noticing recently that APIM is imposing a 128 character length limit for the license URL (see below). What is the reason behind this restriction?

    Hi @Muriuki, Levi M Thanks for your patience. I had a discussion with Product Group team, and they confirmed that they will raise the limit but changes will not reflect immediately it should be deployed within a month.

    Meanwhile thy informed it is best to use shorter URI.

    Do let me know if you have any queries.
