Public bug reported:

The FWaaS REST interface is not checking string lengths, so a name
greater than 255 characters or a description greater than 1024 will
cause creations to fail with a 500 INTERNAL SERVER error due to a "Data
too long for column" DB error internally.

Request Failed: internal server error while processing your request.


Too long names are a user issue, so with validation would receive a better user-focused response:
