Hitting API Limits for OpenAI and tasks not running

I’ve been using the same workflow for a few weeks now, runs automatically with Slack messages as a trigger, but today’s run got stuck saying “hitting openai rate limits”. And if I switch the model to claude it just breaks without messages. I think this is on gumloops side. what’s going on?

Hey @nandocar! If you’re reporting an issue with a flow or an error in a run, please include the run link and make sure it’s shareable so we can take a look.

  1. Find your run link on the history page. Format: https://www.gumloop.com/pipeline?run_id={{your_run_id}}&workbook_id={{workbook_id}}

  2. Make it shareable by clicking “Share” → ‘Anyone with the link can view’ in the top-left corner of the flow screen.

“You exceeded your current quota, please check your plan and billing details. For more information on this error, read the docs: https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/error-codes/api-errors.

This could be because:
