Fix MaxRetryError
in LlamaIndex
✅ Solution
MaxRetryError in LlamaIndex usually stems from exceeding the maximum allowed retries for HTTP requests, often due to rate limits or temporary network issues. To fix it, implement retry logic with exponential backoff in your code when making API calls, or increase the `num_retries` parameter in the service context configuration to allow for more attempts if the default is insufficient. Also, verify your API key is valid and your usage hasn't surpassed any imposed limits.
