imgur API v3 upload image keep getting back status 1203: "Imgur is over capacity. Please try again."

Question

This is the request I am posting

POST /3/image HTTP/1.1
Host: api.imgur.com
Authorization: Client-ID <My client ID>
Cache-Control: no-cache

----WebKitFormBoundaryE19zNvXGzXaLvS5C
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="image"

http://png1.findicons.com/files/icons/1580/devine_icons_part_2/128/home.png
----WebKitFormBoundaryE19zNvXGzXaLvS5C

However, the response I get is:

{
    "data": {
        "error": "Imgur is over capacity. Please try again.",
        "request": "/3/image",
        "method": "POST"
    },
    "success": false,
    "status": 1203
}

I just want to use anonymous upload but the documentation is saying limit of 10MB right? anything I have done wrongly? what should I do to fix this error?

Answer 1

Imgur is frequently over capacity, so perhaps you can try again later. I doubt it's a problem on your end.
