Workaround for Claude Rate Limits: Batch Processing Rows

I’m trying to run a claude column on a large number of rows and I have to wait for my claude rate limits, so I have to run rows like 4 at a time, is there a work around?

Yes, there are a few workarounds to run a Claude column on a large number of rows without being limited by rate limits: 1. Run in smaller batches: Right-click the column, hover over "Run Column" > "Choose Number of rows to run". Specify the number of rows and starting row. 2. Run only rows that haven't run or have errors: Right-click the column, click "Play", then "Run All Rows that haven't run or have errors". 3. Select and run specific rows: Click, drag, and select the desired rows. Right-click and choose "Run # of cells". 4. Test with a small sample first: Start with about 10 rows to identify and fix any errors before running the full column. These methods help manage rate limits by processing rows in smaller, controlled batches.

can I run it on a schedule? so it runs 4 rows, waits for response, runs 4 rows, etc.

Unfortunately, we don't have a built-in feature to automatically process a Claude column in batches of 4 rows on a schedule. However, we do offer some alternatives that might help: 1. Scheduled columns: You can set up your Claude column to run automatically on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. 2. Conditional runs: You can use AI formulas to set conditions for when your Claude column should run. This could potentially be used to create a workaround for processing in batches. 3. Manual batch processing: You can manually run specific rows or batches as needed. If these options don't meet your needs, you might want to request human assistance for a more tailored solution.

Hi Addison, thanks for reaching out. Unfortunately, there's no way to bypass rate limits. I recommend either upgrading your Claude API plan to increase your rate limits or using the "Run all rows that haven't run or have errors" option when clicking the play button. This won't bypass rate limits but will save you from manually running each row with an error individually. Let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.
