# too_many_waiters

> Too many waiters: HTTP 429 from the Rask API v3. What it means, what to do and which operations return it.

| Status | `retry` | `recommendation` |
| - | - | - |
| 429 | `same_key` | `retry_later` |

## What happened

Too many waiters. For example: Too many requests are waiting for jobs.

## What to do

Retry with wait\_seconds=0, or wait Retry-After seconds.

`retry_later`: a temporary failure; retry after a pause (after `Retry-After` when given).

`same_key`: resend the same request with the same Idempotency-Key (after `Retry-After` when given).
