A conflicting resource update is in progress



ERROR: 20162

error-20162 page anchor
PLATFORM
ERROR

The requested resource is already being updated simultaneously by another API request. The last request will be rejected to avoid inconsistent state.

Possible Causes

possible-causes page anchor

The same API resource is being updated by multiple simultaneous API requests from different threads in a conflicting fashion.

  • Implement an operation retrier and repeat the failed API requests after an interval of time using, exponential backoff algorithm.
  • Serialize your API requests that modify the same resources, and wait until the original request completes and returns an API response, before sending any successive modifications.
