Note

We are aware that when using some browser versions to create App Keys the Visualiser throws an UNEXPECTED_ERROR when requesting createDeveloperAppKeys. Using an alternative browser/s should resolve this problem. You should also ensure that your Application Name is unique as attempts to create a duplicate Application Name will return an UNEXPECTED_ERROR response.
