I used to be able to get a PDI so that I could see how some new features work OOB. I just requested a PDI and my profile is set to user role admin but it won't let me get to anything because I don't have an app engine studio license. Is there a way to just see OOB ServiceNow without it?
Solved! Go to Solution.

What I actually did to fix this was go in and change my role to AES and then change it back to Admin and that fixed it.

Hi @PattyH
No need to worry — this is a known issue with PDIs these days. Please follow the steps below:
-
Log in to developer.servicenow.com.
-
Go to your Profile.
-
On the left-hand side, open the Instance Recreate section.
-
Select Change User Role.
-
Change the role from AES to Admin.
-
Save your changes.
-
Log out, then log back in to your PDI instance.
If the issue still persists, you can release the instance and provision a new one.
This is a fairly common issue with PDIs recently. Also, please note that since there’s no official support for PDIs, it might take a few attempts — but keep trying.
