[Solved] The system encountered an overload and is unable to process the request at this time. Please try again later.
Implement Rate Limiting: Limit the number of requests sent to the API within a specific timeframe to avoid contributing to the overload. Optimize Request Payloads: Ensure that requests are as lightweight as possible to reduce server load. Monitor API Usage: Use monitoring tools to track API usage patterns and identify peak times to better manage your requests. Check Server Status: Verify the server status on Anthropic's status page to see if there are any ongoing issues or maintenance.

I'm getting ridiculous amount of "overloaded_error" from Anthropic API recently. It has always been a problem, but in the last few days it is just ridiculous. For example, it has been happening non-stop for the last two hours.
The only way to use Anthropic models is through Amazon Bedrock, which doesn't have all the features that the native API has (especially the beta features). It's really disappointing. I'm often forced to use OpenAI, even though I find their model are worse for what I use them.

February 28, 2025 - Thank you ​ ... You're right—this isn't a Zapier issue directly. The 529 Overloaded Error from Claude AI means that Anthropic's servers are under heavy load and rejecting or delaying requests.
