Error: Custom field index limit exceeded

Error: Custom field index limit exceeded

 

I get this error message when I try add a new External ID to the Account Object in a Sandbox.

 

I have removed both of the other External ID's, and they are not their anymore because when I use data uploader it does not let me choose them, but I still get this error???

 

Do I need to refresh something or need to wait about?

 

Thanks in advance

Hi,

You will need to check for fields that are ticked as Unique they count toward the limit.
