Can't add new OPTA to Arduino Cloud

Hi @hermosaranchllc. I believe this is the procedure you can use to work around the bug with creating new Devices with an Opta:

  1. Click the following link to open the "Things" page in your web browser:
    https://app.arduino.cc/things
  2. Click the "+ THING" button to create a new Thing (or if you have an existing Thing you want to use, select that instead).
    The Thing page will open.
  3. Click the "Select Device" button under the "Associated Device" section of the Thing page.
    The "Associate device" dialog will open.
  4. Click the "SET UP NEW DEVICE" button in the "Associate device" dialog.
    The "Setup Device" dialog will open.
  5. Click the "Arduino board" button in the "Setup Device" dialog.
    The Device creation user flow will start.
  6. Complete the Device creation process.

So the difference is to initiate the Device creation process via the Thing page instead of the alternative approach of initiating it by either clicking the the CREATE NEW > + Add Device button on the home page, or the "+ DEVICE" button on the "Devices" page.
