Hello!
I made this add-on for my partner who is in medical school and I was trying to upload it to AnkiWeb via https://ankiweb.net/shared/upload but I keep getting a “try again later” error.
I am getting a 400 error from /svc/shared/upload-addon with no message except “try again later”.
Source code: GitHub - n3s-online/anki-break-reminder: Anki add-on that prompts break reminders during study sessions
My entry:
Can anyone tell me if I am doing anything wrong?
I never uploaded an addon before but cannot imagine that filling out that form would cause a bad request error.
Maybe try a different internet browser and try to turn off all addons in your browser.
Yeah the 400 error makes me think there is something wrong in my submission (bad request), but I confirmed my .ankiaddon is the right type.
Maybe try a different internet browser and try to turn off all addons in your browser.
Didn’t work 
The add-on file looks fine to me, also the AnkiWeb upload feature seems to be working normally.
If the Wi-Fi speed is slow such errors may occur during the process. If so you may need to try again repeatedly or switch to a different connection.
Occasionally the chosen file may not load properly. If so reselecting the file or reloading the page may resolve the issue.
There is a restriction preventing add-ons from being uploaded if the user’s account is too new, but in that case a different error should appear instead of a 400 so it doesn’t seem related.
This might not be the best error message to indicate this – but isn’t the version a problem?
I have tried setting this to a bunch of different options but no luck.. Maybe I just don’t understand what its asking for here?
This is my best guess, my account is very new.
Adding a manifest.json file makes it possible to distribute the add-on directly, it’s common when developers want to release a pre-release version. e.g.
manifest.json
{
"name": "Break Reminder",
"package": "BreakReminder"
}
Manual: Sharing outside AnkiWeb
Download the .ankiaddon file and open it with a double-click, or install it from the “Install from file” menu in the Anki add-ons management screen. (Please note that you cannot install the file by dragging and dropping it into Anki.)
As far as I know, that should be the lowest and highest version of Anki that you have tested it with and know it works.
Can you share the add-on zip here? We might be able to figure out something.
That would be really appreciated! Here it is: Release v1.0.0 · n3s-online/anki-break-reminder · GitHub
Nothing wrong in the package. I was able to upload it.

Must be something related to your account.
Sweet - thank you!
Yeah, account must be too new
