HTTP 429 rate limit errors

Questions

I’m hitting HTTP 429 rate limit errors in my n8n workflows when calling external APIs. What strategies, like batch processing or retry logic, can I use to prevent these errors and keep my workflows stable?

@Emiliano do you know you can search for errors you have on the forum, to see if your questions have been asked before. That way you save time

Let me know if this is related to your questions

hi there mate @Emiliano , welcome to the community!

for your question, you can use a loop over items + a wait node combination to avoid this rate limit error, you can use something like this

this way, it will trigger and call the API 1 by 1 and after each call it will wait for how much time you set in the wait node

hope it helps, and if it does, please mark my answer as the solution and give it a like, as it would help me big time! thank you!
