2. Connector fails due to "Exceeding the MAX column length" for CPNT_DESC" Error

This is when your Item Descrition length exceeds the default 400 bytes allowed for CPNT_DESC field in LMS.

This can be avoided by adding the following property to your connector config:

skillsoft.item.field.transform.trim.data.length.CPNT_DESC=4000 (Again, try increasing to this value or a higher value if needed)
