Rate limited or slow

Symptoms

• Repeated toast: "Too many requests. Please try again later."
• Page load spinner never resolves
• Slow catalog search results

Likely causes and fixes

1. Rate limit hit

The catalog and login are rate-limited per IP / per user. If you exceed the limit, you get a "Too many requests" message.

Fix:

• Wait 60 seconds and try again.
• Avoid clicking the same submit button multiple times.
• Don't refresh the page repeatedly.

2. Slow catalog loading

If pages are slow but never 429:

• Check your internet connection
• Try a different network (mobile hotspot, home Wi-Fi)
• Wait a minute — large catalog refreshes can be slow

What to do

For end users:

• Wait 60 seconds and try again
• Avoid repeated clicks and refreshes

For API consumers:

• Implement exponential backoff with jitter on 429 responses
• For high-volume use cases, contact support to negotiate a higher limit
