Hi there, I recently got back a 429 Too Many Requests error:
Orchestration API rate limit reached
I'm looking through the docs and trying to figure out if this is referring to flows or tasks etc? Because it isn't super specific which rate limit I've hit
2

The orchestration rate limit is task/flow runs created per minute
Presumably your client retried on this with an exponential backoff and succeeded? Or did it crash your workflow?

I had reties set on it but it didn't try again
so just crash, and no retry

We retry rate limit requests 6x
Separate from task/flow run retries — we also don’t retry tasks/flows on crash.
