Reference Submission Failure Due to SEE Evidence Character Limit

When using Smart Evidence Extraction (SEE), submission may be blocked if SEE adds an automated evidence payload (like a large data table) exceeding the 3,000-character limit. The backend then prevents saving due to this limit.

How to Identify the Issue

Check if:

1. Submission Fails: Clicking "Submit" does not progress despite all questions answered.
2. Large Automated Data: SEE-generated evidence includes very long text or complex tables (not your typed answers).

Workaround

To fix this immediately, remove the oversized evidence from the review screen:

1. Open the problematic reference form.
2. Find the question with the large SEE text or table.
3. Click Manage Evidence on that question.
4. Click the X next to the large evidence to delete it. (Your typed answer remains intact.)
5. Scroll down and click Submit. The reference should save successfully.
