Temporary error in DDNS server response: DDNS server busy #84

I was experiencing this error when testing the changes in my UDM-Pro:

~# inadyn -n -1 --force -f /run/ddns-ppp0-inadyn.conf
inadyn[2075283]: In-a-dyn version 2.12.0 -- Dynamic DNS update client.
inadyn[2075283]: Failed resolving hostname [REDACTED]: Name or service not known
inadyn[2075283]: Update forced for alias [REDACTED], new IP# [REDACTED]
inadyn[2075283]: Temporary error in DDNS server response: DDNS server busy, try later
inadyn[2075283]: Will retry again in 600 sec ...

My configuration is as follows Service: custom Hostname: redactedhostname.redacted.com Username: redacted.com Password: [REDACTED_API_TOKEN] Server: unifi-cloudflare-ddns.REDACTED.workers.dev/update?ip=%i&hostname=%h

I finally fixed this by manually adding the entry on cloudflare, then whenever the IP changes, the script executes successfully. I don't know what rationale is behind not being able to add new entries maybe someone more experienced could explain this.
