Anthropic Overloaded eror

Questions

Hello,

we get Anthropic Overloaded errors: {“type”:“error”,“error”:{“details”:null,“type”:“overloaded_error”,“message”:“Overloaded”} }

very often, but we don’t see ANY rate limit hits in Anthropic console.

It happens when just a few people are using the app, it seems to me more like some n8n issue than Anthropic. Anthropic returns error 429 when hitting rate limit, not an Overloaded error message.

Is there some way to debug what is going on and where the problem happens?

We have configured retry with some delay, but it is not a real solution. When this happens it usually means that the service is unusable for a few minutes.

Information on your n8n setup

  • **n8n version: latest, 1.100.1
  • **Database (default: SQLite): default
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • **Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app): n8n cloud
  • **Operating system:

Hi Mark_Fric,

is this a persistent error or did it just happened for a specific time period? … it being a 429 error suggests its a server side error which would mean its from Anthropic side.
