Unable to Access ServiceNow Personal Developer Instance (PDI)

[akshatmishr]

I hope you are doing well.

I am trying to get a Personal Developer Instance (PDI) for learning and development purposes, but my account has been put on the waitlist.

Whenever I log into the Developer Portal, I see the message: "You're waitlisted for an instance. You'll receive an email as soon as one is available." (I have also attached the screenshot for your reference). 

I would highly appreciate it if you could assist me in getting access to an instance at the earliest.

Thank you for your time and support.

Hi @akshatmishr 

Don't worry—this is quite common at the moment.

Over the past few days, many community members have reported delays when requesting a PDI. In some cases, the waiting period has been 6–7 days or even longer, especially for lower ServiceNow versions.

You can try requesting an instance on an earlier release, such as Zurich or an older version, but there may still be a waiting period due to high demand.

For now, patience is the best approach, as PDI availability depends on overall demand and ServiceNow's infrastructure capacity.
