What is required to edit field properties such as changing a fixed length text field from 255 to 320 characters?

To edit field properties, such as adjusting the length of a fixed text field, having field edit permission and access to the Fields tab is necessary. This permission allows a user to make specific modifications to the field settings, ensuring that they can change attributes like the maximum character length.

Access to the Fields tab is crucial as it is the interface through which these changes are typically made. Without the appropriate permissions or access to this section, a user would be unable to implement the desired edits successfully.

Other options may involve permissions, but they are not specifically tailored to the action of editing field properties. For instance, having admin rights to the entire system is broader and does not directly address the specific permission needed for editing field properties. Document edit permission pertains to editing content within documents, not field definitions. Lastly, claiming no permissions are needed overlooks the necessary controls that are in place to ensure that only authorized individuals can make significant changes to field properties.
