I don’t know if this is the right section to post a question on this, please move this post is that is the case.
What I have noticed, is that if I make a series of calls to the text completion API; For example, one to transcribe, one to summarize and finally one to determine the sentiment.
I will frequently get a connection error doing so. Is this caused by a rate limiter?
As someone else pointed out, the error would explicitly say that it was a rate error. A connection error is likely due to a high demand and the API server not responding.
If you are having problems with rate errors as well, the open ai website has samples for a backoff wrapper that would help mitigate that issue
