Meta Error 17: User Request Limit Reached

  1. 1

    Pause requests for the affected token instead of retrying every failed job.

  2. 2

    Consolidate repeated reads and move eligible server workloads to an approved system user.

  3. 3

    Retry with exponential backoff after confirming the usage window has recovered.

WHAT THE ERROR MEANS

Too many API calls are being attributed to one Meta user token.

Error 17 indicates throttling associated with the user represented by the access token.

PRIMARY DOCUMENTATION

Platform APIs and policy systems change. Confirm the current requirements in the official documentation before modifying a production integration.
