OpenRouter API not working? Common error codes
If OpenRouter's API is returning errors, the table below explains what each code means and how to fix it. If errors are widespread, check the live status above - a service incident will appear there within minutes.
| Error | What it means & what to do |
|---|---|
| HTTP 429 | OpenRouter rate limit or upstream provider throttling |
| HTTP 502 | Upstream provider error - check which model/provider you're routing to |
| HTTP 503 | OpenRouter or upstream provider unavailable |
Note: Tickerr monitors OpenRouter's status endpoint, not individual API calls. An HTTP 429 or 500 in your app may be specific to your account tier - check the rate limits page for plan-specific thresholds.
About OpenRouter status
OpenRouter is an API aggregator that provides unified access to 100+ LLMs from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and others. OpenRouter outages can affect all downstream models or specific providers. Monitoring reflects OpenRouter's own API availability, not individual provider status.
