If you’re using Amazon Bedrock and find yourself facing a ThrottlingException with the message “Too many tokens per day,” don’t worry—you’re not alone. This issue can be frustrating, especially when it happens right at the start of your day, preventing you from generating any responses.
Here’s a simple way to solve this problem:
First, check your account usage to see if you’ve hit the daily token limit. Amazon Bedrock has usage caps to prevent overuse, and once you reach that limit, you’ll be temporarily blocked from making further requests.
To fix this, log into your AWS Management Console, navigate to the Bedrock service, and review your usage statistics. If you’ve hit the limit, you have a couple of options:
- Wait for the limit to reset: Usually, daily limits reset at midnight UTC. If your work isn’t urgent, waiting might be the simplest solution.
- Request a limit increase: If you need more tokens daily, you can submit a request to AWS Support to increase your quota. This process is straightforward: go to the Service Quotas section of your console, select Amazon Bedrock, and follow the steps to request a higher limit.
In the meantime, consider managing your token consumption more efficiently:
- Break large requests into smaller chunks.
- Review your usage patterns to avoid unnecessary requests.
- Use caching for repeated responses to reduce token usage.
Keep in mind that all providers and models under Amazon Bedrock share the same token limits. So, whether you’re using different models, the total tokens count towards your daily limit.
By monitoring your usage and requesting higher limits if necessary, you’ll be able to continue using Amazon Bedrock without interruptions.
