I have a total of 100 asset packs associated with my app but I have archived 5 of them. Unfortunately I am now unable to upload any more asset packs (the reported error is "backgroundAsset limit reached -- This app has already reached the maximum number of active backgroundAssets. Maximum allowed is 100.") I assumed that archiving asset packs would make them inactive (and thus not count against the limit). This seems to not be the case and I'm not sure how I can upload new asset packs.

Thank you for your post. I was recently reading the documentation regarding size limitations.

https://developer.apple.com/help/app-store-connect/reference/app-uploads/apple-hosted-asset-pack-size-limits

Asset packs, when archived, do not render them inactive in terms of counting against limits.

This is a known bug that Apple is currently addressing. However, to ensure that you receive notification when the bug has been resolved, I kindly request that you file a bug using Feedback Assistant.

Once you open the bug report, please post the FB number here for my reference.

Thanks again and please do not forget to post the FB number as I need this so you get notified when the issue gets fixed.
