How can I increase my ACM service quota?

Resolution

You can use the Service Quotas dashboard or AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) to request an increase to ACM service quotas.

Note: If you receive errors when you run AWS CLI commands, then see Troubleshoot AWS CLI errors. Also, make sure that you're using the most recent AWS CLI version.

ACM certificate service quotas are dependent on the type and number of certificates per AWS Region. Make sure that you review the ACM service quotas default values and how service quotas apply to your AWS account.

Use the Service Quotas dashboard

For instructions on how to use the Service Quotas dashboard for a quota increase, see Using the AWS Management Console to request an increase. In the search box for AWS services, enter AWS Certificate Manager (ACM).

Use the AWS CLI

Complete the following these steps:

1. To check the applied quota value for the service that you want to increase, run the get-service-quota command.

2. To list all quotas that are associated with ACM and their default quota values, run the list-aws-default-service-quotas command similar to the following one:

   aws service-quotas list-aws-default-service-quotas --service-code acm

3. To request a quota increase, run the request-service-quota-increase command.

4. To check the status of a pending request, run the get-requested-service-quota-change command.

Note: It's a best practice to proactively monitor and manage your service quotas so that you have enough quotas to support your usage requirements.
