We currently have telemetry recording installed addons and enabled addon lists on Fenix.

A number of "Invalid Overflow" and "Invalid Value" Glean errors are recorded for addons.enabled_addons and addons.installed_addons probes due to the existing limits for the String List metric type:

  • the fixed maximum string length is 50 characters. The extension ID can contain up to 80 characters. The other probes that currently use this metric are unlikely to need a higher limit than 80 characters.

  • the fixed maximum list length for the String List metric is 20 items. We currently have 22 recommended add-ons and another 7 of our own already installed. Due to the fact we plan to support even more, this limit should also be increased. Ideally to the highest value possible.

Mihai, the decision to increase the max string length to 100 (to match the StringMetric type) and to increase the maximum list length to 100 entries. Will that satisfy your use case with some future-proofing?

The String length is surely enough. The list length should also be enough. Thank you!
