Troubleshooting

429 is a rate limit response. Lower your concurrency, retry with backoff, or switch to a plan with a larger quota.

Common causes

  • Too many concurrent requests
  • Quota of the current plan exhausted
  • Retrying immediately without backoff

How to fix

  • Limit concurrency and retry with exponential backoff
  • Switch to a plan with a larger quota
  • Cache repeated requests
