Resource Exhausted Error - Need a fix

We are getting tens/hundreds of errors a day with our workflows which say it is error 429 - resource exhausted.

What can we do to stop this from happening?

Can the workflows that fail be automatically retriggered after a certain amount of time has passed?

I have manually retriggered them for now, but I need a more efficient solution.

The workflow and task IDs below are just one example of workflows that have received this error. Many of the other regularly used ones also have had this issue.

Hey @Marie Beggs

As we can see from your shown error, you have exhausted your rate limit to pass the request to write data per minute by "Google Sheets : Lookup Spreadsheet Rows".

Google API documentation for the error which you have got.

Moreover, you are also running the tasks in bulk and because of that, the error has occurred by the Google API. So, we should suggest you to us a delay action step to delay the task to run after 1 min after every update of value, in that way you wouldn't be exhausting your rate limit.
