I'm an AI assistant - my answers may be incorrect and I cannot see screenshots. Please verify information with the OpenRouter docs.

To help resolve your "too many requests" error with Gemma on OpenRouter, I need more details:

  1. What is the exact error message and HTTP status code returned by the API?
  2. Which specific Gemma model identifier are you using (e.g., google/gemma-2-9b-it, google/gemma-3-27b-it, etc.)?
  3. Can you share a snippet of your n8n workflow configuration or the relevant code making the API calls?

These details will help pinpoint if you're hitting rate limits, provider throttling, or another issue.

I just have a lot of workflows using the model. they run fine when I don't get that error. is this a setting in openrouter?

The error "The service is receiving too many requests from you" usually means you're hitting a rate limit or throttling threshold set by OpenRouter or the provider for your specific model. This is not a configurable setting on your OpenRouter dashboard.

OpenRouter itself does not document user-configurable rate limits in the public docs. The most relevant guidance is to:

  • Monitor your usage in real-time using the OpenRouter Activity Dashboard
  • Ensure you have a healthy credit balance ("Recommended minimum balance: $10-20 to ensure smooth operation") Latency and Performance
  • If you're automating many workflows, consider implementing retry logic or adding delays between requests in your n8n workflows to avoid bursts that might trigger rate limiting

OpenRouter does not provide direct settings to adjust request limits. You may also want to consider using model fallbacks (so if your primary model is throttled, a backup gets used) as described in the docs OpenClaw Integration:

"OpenClaw supports model fallbacks. If the primary model is unavailable, it will try the fallback models in order..."

If you are consistently hitting limits and have a paid account, you can contact OpenRouter support for further assistance. If your account has spent less than $10, you'll need to continue troubleshooting here on Discord.

@dire verge you don't have any providers pinned right?

#

sometimes all providers are out of capacity. capacity is still ramping up for this model so we'll keep adding it when we can find it!
