Cannot create new application instance in dev account

[r6ixerrr]

We have some Go code using the API against our developer account and wanted to change the config for an app. The issue I’m seeing is that the PUT to /api/v1/apps/{{appId}} is returning the following error :

{
    "errorCode": "E0000039",
    "errorSummary": "Operation on application settings failed.",
    "errorLink": "E0000039",
    "errorId": "oaevU7q_agASmSySGJsIk0SBg",
    "errorCauses": [
        {
            "errorSummary": "Cannot create application instance. Maximum number of instances has been reached."
        }
    ]
} 

The account has only 7 apps and I’ve tried deleting a couple but that did not help. Also I’m trying to change an existing app and not add a new one. But I can edit the config of the app from the UI just fine.

Something seems to changed recently on the server side since I can’t create new apps from the ‘Classic UI’ either (The green ‘Add Application’ button is grayed out’). However I can switch to the developer console and create new apps or edit existing ones.

Are we in the middle of a release roll-out ? Is there something I can check in terms of limits on the account to try and debug this ?

Thanks much.

Hello, Were you able to go past this issue? I am getting a similar issue when I create an app calling Okta API from python code.
{‘errorCode’: ‘E0000001’, ‘errorSummary’: ‘Api validation failed: generalSettings’, ‘errorLink’: ‘E0000001’, ‘errorId’: ‘oae2hOfNjfcTGqUdY1ngXpmLQ’, ‘errorCauses’: [{‘errorSummary’: ‘Cannot create application instance. Maximum number of instances has been reached.’}]}

Thanks.

I’m having the same issue. Is there a limit on how many apps we can create in a Dev account? Can someone shed some light on this?

Hi @happyelegance

You can find here the maximum number of apps that can be added for each tier of developer editions.
