Description

Both EmmaLi and I have been successfully using the data api for a while now. We have a bit of code that calls it for a specific state then harvests data out of the respons to get data for a specific indicator we want to compare results with. It's worked perfectly for states as small as Wyoming and Vermont and as big as California. But now, both of us are getting the same error when we try the api call for Texas.

This call:

URL: https://ejamapi-84652557241.us-central1.run.app/data
{'buffer': 0, 'fips': 'TX', 'scale': 'blockgroup'}

always results in this error:

requests.exceptions.HTTPError: 504 Server Error: Gateway Timeout for url: https://ejamapi-84652557241.us-central1.run.app/data
