Meta is temporarily rate-limiting {name} sign-in (HTTP 429).

Error message

Meta is temporarily rate-limiting {name} sign-in (HTTP 429). Wait a few minutes before retrying and avoid clicking Connect repeatedly.{account_hint}

What it means

wrap_authorize_rate_limit_error's rewritten message for Meta-toolkit (Instagram/Facebook/WhatsApp) OAuth authorization when Composio reports HTTP 429: Meta is throttling sign-in attempts. Account-type hints are appended for instagram/facebook because personal accounts are a common secondary cause.

Solutions

1. Wait several minutes before retrying; do not click Connect repeatedly (each click consumes rate-limit budget)
