# 91003: Account reached the max sink limit

Log Type: APPLICATION

Log Level: ERROR

## Description

This error occurs when you try to create an Event Streams sink after your account has reached the maximum of 100 Sink resources. Delete an unused sink before you create another one.

### Possible causes

* Your account already has 100 Sink resources.
* Unused or obsolete sinks are still present in your account.
* A sink you planned to remove still has an associated subscription, so the sink cannot be deleted yet.

### Possible solutions

* List your existing sinks with `GET /v1/Sinks` and identify any sink you no longer need.
* If an unused sink still has a subscription, delete the subscription first with `DELETE /v1/Subscriptions/{Sid}`.
* Delete the unused sink with `DELETE /v1/Sinks/{Sid}`.
* Retry your sink creation request after your account has fewer than 100 sinks.
