Getting "I cannot access or summarize content from the URL" responses from the API randomly

[joshdance]

cont inputUrl = 'mintchecklist.com'
const normalizedUrl = normalizeUrl(inputUrl);
    const response = await fetch("https://api.perplexity.ai/chat/completions", {
      method: "POST",
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${apiKey}`,
        "Content-Type": "application/json"
      },
      body: JSON.stringify({
        model: "sonar",
        messages: [{
          role: "system",
          content: "Be precise and concise. For any claims provide citations."
        }, {
          role: "user",
          content: `Please provide a brief summary of the content at this URL: ${normalizedUrl}`
        }],
        temperature: 0.2,
        max_tokens: 1000
      })
    });

Response:

I cannot access or summarize content from the URL https://www.mintchecklist.com directly. However, I can suggest that you provide the text or context from the webpage, and I can assist you in summarizing it based on that information

Trying to use Perplexity to summarize a few URLs. Most work great, but occasionally I get this response.

The Web App summarizes from the same URL just fine.
And the playground (https://labs.perplexity.ai/) summarizes from the same URL just fine.

Any ideas on how I could solve this?

This may happen occasionally as the search methodology between our products may vary slightly. When you say you use Perplexity to summarize a few URLs, you mean Sonar, correct? Also, were you able to summarize information from mintchecklist https://www.mintchecklist.com/) at least once using the API or not even?

I tried it again and the API did return a response now.

mintchecklist.com
The URL https://www.mintchecklist.com provides digital collaborative checklists for dentists and their teams. These checklists are designed for daily, weekly, and monthly tasks, and they also include shared checklists for teams to enhance collaboration and organization within dental practices[1].
