Hi @jimender2 I’ll have the team look into this. Where in the upload process are you running into an error?

Hi,

This is when I click on the create button and then fill out info on the first page. The first page is all the resource metadata such as name, description, etc. There is a next button that when I hit it, that is when this error occurs.

I am having the same error as well. Trying to make a private resource, not sure if that matters.

I dont think the exchange is monitored. I keep running into issues with it as well. It seems they do a reboot on occasion.

Ive decided to just release my stuff on GitHub/GitLab.

Hi @jimender2 we do monitor and fix bugs on the Exchange, but don’t know about issues if they aren’t reported. If you ever run into an issue on the Exchange, please report it to our team using the ‘Report Issue’ feature on the Exchange page. If you have details about the issues you’ve been running into and can share them it would be very helpful to send our way so we can figure out what’s going on.
