Limitation of multiline fields returned from a CDS will only return first 2044 characters

Have been developing a process that ideally will retrieve a JSON script from a Dynamics CE environment.  The process will then use the JSON to run the process instead of creating additional action for each variation.  This part is working fine however the field in Dynamics has been increased to accept 200,000 character (Thinking we should have any need to go above this and probably never get near to it but allows us some breathing space).  I've noticed that the CDS action for retrieving the field is only bringing back 2044 characters, which is going to cause an issue if we expand the JSON script, is there anything I'm missing that would increase this?  It also looks like if I use the web api that this only retrieves the first 2044 characters
