Problem summary
Your Google Data Studio report cannot complete a query when your Funnel workspace exceeds its query rate limit.
Error message or symptoms
You see one of these errors:
Distributed query rate limit per minute exceededDistributed query rate limit exceeded
Some charts can load while other charts show the error.
When does this occur
Requests from one Funnel workspace exceed the allowed work during a 60-second period.
A report page contains many charts. Google Data Studio sends at least one request to Funnel for each chart.
Reports, Data Explorer or Data Warehouse exports send several queries from the same workspace at the same time.
Queries use long date ranges, comparison periods, many fields or high-cardinality dimensions.
Other scheduled requests run at the same time as the report.
Root cause
Queries from the Funnel workspace require more work than the quota allows during a 60-second period. Funnel throttles some requests to protect service performance. The limit depends on the number of simultaneous queries and the work required to complete them, not only the amount of data returned.
Solution
Use one or more of these options:
Wait one minute before you try the query again.
Refresh the report. Funnel caches successful responses for one hour.
Create a Funnel data share that contains only the fields the report needs.
Reduce the number of charts on each page.
Split charts across several pages.
Shorten the report date range.
Remove comparison periods that the report does not need.
Remove fields and high-cardinality dimensions that each chart does not need.
Add filters to the Funnel data share.
Run the report at a different time from other scheduled requests.
Export highly segmented data to a data warehouse such as BigQuery.
