The error message you are receiving suggests that Roboflow, and the platform you’re using, is working fine but the image URL provided is not accessible. A HTTP 429 error means “Too Many Requests” which can happen when you exceed a ratelimit.

If you aren’t having issues accessing the image locally, I recommend you query the image data locally, then POST the image data to the Roboflow Hosted API.

The 429 error isn’t with our API, it’s with imgur.com, which we can’t control. As suggested in the quoted answer above, if you aren’t having issues accessing the image locally, I recommend you query the image data locally, then POST the image data to the Roboflow Hosted API.
