Hi there,  
I have a simple loop where I am generating Gateways from my TTN setup.

After two devices are created from my template, the others ones are giving me this error:

I have read the documentation but I couldn’t find any limit stating how many devices I can create.

Even adding a delay of 1 second between each call doesn’t help.

Let me know,  
Cheers.

That error is because you have run out of available devices in your [free sandbox account](https://docs.losant.com/user-accounts/sandbox/). You can check the usage vs. limits numbers for all of your resources on your [Sandbox Overview page](https://app.losant.com/me/sandbox).

If you are working on a POC for a business case, you can [contact our sales team](https://www.losant.com/contact-us) about an enterprise trial organization, which would get you access to additional resources and longer data retention limits, at least for a limited time.
