I am having trouble creating subscription when following the subscription guide. I was able to create first subscription but failed everytime after.
The error I am getting seems like very generic, I have no clue what that means. Hoping someone could help me out here.
Uncaught Error: Create Subscription Api response error:
{
"name": "RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND",
"message": "The specified resource does not exist.",
"debug_id": "4ff352338e5db",
"details": [
{
"issue": "INVALID_RESOURCE_ID",
"description": "Requested resource ID was not found."
}
],
