I am trying to post on a backup reddit account. I use [make.com](http://make.com) to do the posting for me.

I use an anti detect browser with a 4g proxy.

I keep getting this error every time I run the seneraio and usually get account bans.

[[“RATELIMIT”,“Looks like you’ve been doing that a lot. Take a break for 9 minutes before trying again.”,“ratelimit”]]

I understand this may be an error on reddit side however when I try post manually it seems to work fine. Does anyone know how to get around this?

Also does [make.com](http://make.com) use reddit API to make posts?

Hi there,

This is a rate limit error and this arises when you are making too many request in a short time or you have consume your limit for the day.

To over come this, you can do 2 things:

1. Use Sleep module to delay the request (you can use just before the module where issue happens)

2. To prevent your scenario from failing in case of an error, I would kindly recommend you to read our [Introduction to Error Handling document](https://www.make.com/en/help/errors/introduction-to-error-handling) and also to have a look at the [List of Directives to manage error handling](https://www.make.com/en/help/errors/directives-for-error-handling).

“Break” should help here.

Hope this helps! 🙂
