Hello Team,
I'm having a problem with my external API calls.
Any api I try to call, I get a 429 Too Many requests... What could be the cause?
Thanks a lot,
Cypo

Hello,
429 would be something that the external API is returning, you would need to get in contact with them.
Best,

Hey Brody,
I can try with any api, after 2-3 requests I run into the 429 error. Not coming from there

We have no ability to return status codes on behalf of external APIs.
Since this isn't an issue originating from our platform, I'm going to open this thread up to the community so that they may help you if they want.

hi, you’re hitting a 429 because your app is sending too many requests too fast. try adding rate limiting or exponential backoff, and make sure to respect any retry-after headers. if it's an external api, check their rate limits or consider upgrading your plan.
