For http error 429, you gotta respect the API’s limits. Some APIs send `Retry-After` headers—check for those!
If not, I’d recommend a library like `tenacity` for retries with backoff. Here’s how:
```python
from tenacity import retry, stop_after_attempt, wait_exponential
import requests
@retry(stop=stop_after_attempt(3), wait=wait_exponential(multiplier=1, min=4, max=10))
def make_request():
response = requests.get("your_api_url")
response.raise_for_status()
return response
```
This’ll handle the retries automagically.
