Scenario in Make.com stops unexpectedly due to API rate limit errors

:bullseye: What is your goal?

Continuously sync large volumes of customer data from an external API into a database without interruptions.

:thinking: What is the problem?

The scenario runs for a while but then stops with errors related to too many requests. I’ve tried reducing the number of operations and adding delays, but the issue still occurs when processing large datasets.

:test_tube: What have you tried so far?

This is the response

Error: 429 Too Many Requests Response: { “error”: “rate_limit_exceeded”, “message”: “You have exceeded the maximum number of API requests allowed per minute.” }

Hey there,

which API is this? Maybe it supports bulk actions which reduce the number of requests you send per minute.
