Hi everyone!

Is there a way to set max words or characters in the text input fields?  
I expect it to work the same way as max number in number input fields.

You can set the max length by setting the HTML attribute “maxlength” on your text input. Here’s a screenshot of where you make the change:

Thank you! Working as intended.
