429 **A limit is reached**

The account holds as many machines as it may.

## When it happens

- The account holds 100 machines through the API, deleted ones aside: `delete one first`.
- The account has as many machines running or kept as it may: `pause, archive or delete one first`.

## What to do

Delete the machines you no longer need (`wm machines ls`, then `wm machines rm`), then try again.

**Send it again?** Yes, once there is room.
