PROVIDER RATE LIMITED

Troubleshoot provider rate limited responses from the Ovok API.

HTTP 503. Stable Problem Details type: https://docs.ovok.com/errors/provider-rate-limited.

What this means

The wearable provider is limiting requests from the project's app. Nothing was written and syncedThrough did not move. Clients should branch on type and status, not on human-readable detail text.

Troubleshooting

Wait the number of seconds in the Retry-After header, which carries the provider's own delay, before syncing again. If it happens often, review your app's rate limits at the provider. Compare the request with the relevant endpoint's documentation and confirm the authenticated project and environment. Record the request path and traceId before escalating; the identifier lets an administrator find server-side context without sharing credentials or patient data.

Retry safely

For a 5xx response, wait for Retry-After when present and retry with bounded backoff. Before replaying a write, read the affected resource or operation state to avoid duplicate effects. Follow endpoint-specific idempotency and concurrency guidance. Do not retry in a tight loop or use a broader permission or project setting to bypass the check.

If the problem persists

Share the HTTP status, problem type, request path, response timestamp, and traceId with your administrator or support contact. Remove access tokens, provider secrets, and sensitive patient data from the report. The Error responses guide explains the response fields, while the machine-code registry lists every endpoint-specific type audited for this release.
