500 Error When Fetching Profile via Social API and getSocialProfiles function (Neynar Credit Limit)

[AvinashNayak27]

Summary

Calling the Social API profile endpoint returns a 500 error related to a Farcaster lookup credit limit from Neynar, even though the request itself is valid and authenticated.

Endpoint

GET https://social.thirdweb.com/v1/profiles/{addresss}

Headers

x-client-id: <my_client_id>

Error Response

{
  "code": 500,
  "message": "Failed to fetch farcaster profile - You've used 969,000 credits, which exceeds your plan's monthly allocation. Please upgrade your plan here (https://dev.neynar.com/account/plans)"
}

Observed Behavior

The API fails due to an upstream Neynar quota limit. I am not directly using Neynar, but the dependency seems to affect thirdweb profile fetch requests.

Expected Behavior

The endpoint should either:

• return available profile data without failing entirely, or
• return a clear thirdweb-specific error indicating what action is required

Impact

This blocks integration because profile fetches fail consistently once the upstream quota is hit.

---

Happy to provide additional logs or test requests if needed.
