The service is receiving too many requests from you! Perhaps take a break?

Hello to all of you, I am new to n8n.

Yesterday was the first time this message appear to me.
I was looking at other topics but couldn’t find what is causing this issue in my workflow.
I tried inserting a wait not for 20 secs but it didn’t make any difference
Can anyone help?

Information on your n8n setup

  • n8n version: 0.207.1
  • Database you’re using (default: SQLite):
  • Running n8n with the execution process [own(default), main]:
  • Running n8n via [Docker, npm, n8n.cloud, desktop app]: Docker

check the options for the http node. There is a batch option to make sure you are not sending too many requests in one go.

What should be the configuration? Or how can I determine it?

Tryied with the default 50 items per Batch with an Interval of 1000ms and the problem persists…
How can I determine if it is a lot of requests?

The API docs will show you what the limit is. So you then set it below that limit :wink:
