API Ban

Hello, I played around with terraform and railway and find out that I've been shadow ban (sort of) like the Retry-After header in my request response is set to 86400 (24 hours).

I'm pretty sure I was under the 1000 request / hour.

In case that I've hit the limit the Retry After header should not be of 3600 ?

using VPN did the track but I'm afraid that in a github action it will fail for this reason

I deal with this on my side but I'm thinking about use that in an action so I would like to understand what cause the "ban" to maybe avoid it

Yes i test like a number of requests under rate limiting and I still get the problem, I suppose there is a a delay to respect between each (or a certain number) request

Anyway will try to deal with it with templateDeploy, reducing api call will supress the error for now but for consequent project it will certainly be a point of failure
