Maximum Retry attempts

Maximum Retry attempts

When I try to upload a PDF via api, I get this error,

 

{"status": "FAILED", "error": "Job reached maximum retry attempts"}

 

File size is around 1 MB, do I need to enable something in the settings?

Can you share the code you're using and a sample URL that results in this error? Thanks in advance!

Thank you for your prompt response Greg, this issue was because of authentication. I fixed it in my code.

 

Thanks, once again !!!!!

In my case, it was a problem in my code with the authentication.
