I’m looking at this on another thread, too. I have a hunch as to what the problem may be - can you two email [help@roboflow.com](mailto:help@roboflow.com) with the scripts you’re using to run the API calls? Additionally, please include the example image file(s) you tested when receiving the 500-errors. > [@Deploying using api is giving 500 eroor](https://discuss.roboflow.com/t/deploying-using-api-is-giving-500-eroor/1688/7): > > @jackey @zong_wei Interesting - I’m having trouble reproducing this. Are hosted images the only images you are testing with, or have you both tried with local images, too? Additionally, what are the image sizes you’re testing with? (In Megabytes, and the width/height in pixels) --- _[View the full topic](https://discuss.roboflow.com/t/error-occuring-while-trying-the-api/1617)._
