Error: Timeout – Service Is Temporarily Unavailable

The connection between your platform (e.g., Zapier, Make, or direct API) and PDF.co was interrupted

Our servers may be experiencing a brief delay or heavy load

Your workflow timed out before PDF.co could respond
​

Use Zapier’s replay tool to retry the failed task

If the error continues, add a short delay step before retrying or insert a path to handle retries
​

Add error handling to retry the step automatically

Use a “Sleep” module between retries to give PDF.co time to recover

Refer to Make’s retry documentation →
​

Implement retry logic with exponential backoff (e.g., retry after 5s, 10s, 20s)
