Hey, does anyone knows what this action ‘RATE_LIMITED’ does? I could not find anything in the docs.

Thank you <@U05JENRCF7C>
not sure if I fully understand it though.
Am I right that the difference between retry and rate_limited is that the latter is waiting a specific time until it retries to respect the limit?
Will it receive the threshold from the api automatically and respect it?
Use different backoff strategy, if your API returns something in headers
