Make errors / Rate limit

429 Too Many Requests

platform: Make / category: Rate limit / code: 429

Cause

A module exceeded the connected service's API rate limit by sending too many requests in a short window.

Fix

Add a Sleep module between looping modules (1-2s). For webhook scenarios, enable Sequential Processing so executions do not pile up. For persistent overflow, add a Break error handler so failed bundles queue in Incomplete Executions and retry automatically.
