This issue does not have all the information required by the template. Looks like you forgot to fill out some sections. Please update the issue with more information.

Updated comment with function-samples forked and with a 63 char name added.

[dteirney]

Updated as we had a function name of 64 characters as well, which would previously deploy.

Nope, was 63, sorry.

Hmmm the git blame on that line looks like this limitation has been in place for at least 2 years. @joehan or @inlined did yiou change something recently?

[samtstern]

Based on the Cloud Functions console it looks like 63 is the correct limit, maybe this is a very old typo in our code:

The validate function has been in place for years, but the call to that function was commented out until recently. We can up the limit if the backend will accept it.
