How-To Fix 429 RateLimitError When Interacting With Crusoe Managed Inference Service

Introduction

Sending requests to the Crusoe Managed Inference service returns the following error:

openai.RateLimitError: Error code: 429 - {'code': 'too_many_requests', 'message': 'ErrorCode 1000-0001', 'error_id': '56d107027cf1465afa5991bbb2efe51a'}

Although this error can be seen if the request rate limit is being hit, the most common scenario for this to occur is due to not sending the requests to the updated API endpoint.

As of June 2026, the Crusoe Managed Inference service API endpoint has been updated to api.inference.crusoecloud.com, which points to a much more reliable and stable data path.

This has been updated in our Docs, referenced below.

Prerequisites

• Crusoe Account: Access to the Intelligence Foundry enabled.
• Crusoe Managed Inference API key

Instructions

1. When sending requests, make sure you're using the updated API endpoint for the base_url field, as follows:
   base_url="https://api.inference.crusoecloud.com/v1"
2. If, after updating the base_url you're still experiencing 429 errors, please Submit a Support Request.
