Edit length of Zoom meeting chat

Hi @buymv, thank you for contributing to the Zoom Community!

The current limitation for the in-meeting chat is 1,024 characters to prevent server load. On a PC, you can copy and paste over the 1,024-character limit, but it will only show up to 1,024 characters. On a Mac, when you go to paste text that exceeds the 1,024-character limit, Zoom will not allow the paste.

I do agree this can be limiting in some use cases and I urge you to submit this feedback to our product teams who will review your feature request.. Here's how: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/115005838023

I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause,

I agree completely -- you need to protect your servers? how about protecting the legitimate needs of your customers?

The chat function is indispensable in our meetings. It should be easy to post a long set of instructions or readings in chat, but the character limit is a killer. Conducting the process on whiteboard or share screen is cumbersome and time consuming. Get with it, Zoom!

Is there any news on an increase in the ridiculous small character limit. All questions seem to have been ignorred

I totally agree with the above comments. Suddenly without warning from Zoom the important messages put there by my attendees are all useless. The scientists on my fortnightly meetings will all go elsewhere if I can't fix this.
