BTP Trial Account: error "Unable to recognize the artifact type"

I am using a BTP Trial Account to prepare for the Low Code/No Code Certification.

I was previously (a few weeks ago) able to create Processes in my Trial Account without any issues.
Now, when trying to create a new Process or edit one which was already created, I am faced with this constant error popup :

"Request failed with status code 400
Unable to recognize the artifact type [notificationtemplate]"

I haven't edited the default 'notificationtemplate' - I don't even know where to check that or how we would edit it. Upon checking SAP For Me I could not find anything related to artifact type errors in BTP / SAP Build. The closest I could find were issues relating to the Cloud Connector.

So, I checked in my Trial Account > Connectivity > Cloud Connectors and I can see:

There is no cloud connector connected to this subaccount.

I hadn't previously configured a Cloud Connector for this account and I don't know if it's required, but I was previously able to create Process Automations in the account. If there was a Cloud Connector before I am assuming it was a 'default' Cloud Connector administered by whoever takes care of Trial Accounts in general.

I have tried to contact Support but to do so it requires selecting a customer, and I do not have one - I am an SAP Employee and am using this account to prepare for the Certification. So I cannot contact Support through any standard channels

I cannot enable the Built In Support in BTP Cockpit due to below error.

 @SAPSupport any suggestions on how I can resolve this issue?

Thanks

> "Unable to recognize the artifact type"

I don't think, this error has anything to do with the Cloud Connector. Can it be, that your Trial Account has expired? (I think that trial accounts expire after a few weeks of inactivity.)

There is not such thing as a "default" Cloud Connector, and as a Cloud Connector needs to be installed in the on-premises network, it cannot be installed centrally. It can only be installed & connected by yourself, so if you hadn't done this earlier, then there never was a Cloud Connector connected to your account.

And it is not required in general, only if your Cloud application needs to make HTTP or RFC calls to an on-premises backend system that is hidden behind a firewall. If you don't need that, then you don't need a Cloud Connector.

Then you can just open a ServiceNow ticket of type "DEVINC". No customer needed for that.

Hi Ulrich,

Thanks for confirming this has nothing to do with Cloud Connector.

My Trial Account is not expired.

Is there a Wiki with steps on how to submit a SNOW ticket of type "DEVINC"?

Update: Whatever was the cause it seems to have 'fixed itself'. No longer getting an error for the same call.
