I think that it is (31^2)-1, or about 2 billion. Task ids are also drawn from this same pool of numbers, by the way.

If I had to guess, I'd say that they would start over again at 1, but I'm not sure.

Can you explain why ID is implemented as a long in OpenAPI if the max value can be contained in an int?

Sorry, but no. There are a lot of things about OpenAPI that I, personally, cannot explain.

OpenAPI chose to use long instead of int in case implementation details changed to allow for ids that are 64 bit long.
