When the remoteConfig load fails on the first call, the SDK returns the code 8002 (throttled) for the other calls

[cap-dbaronnet]

[REQUIRED] Step 1: Describe your environment

Xcode version: Xcode 12.0.1
Firebase SDK version: 6.33.0
Firebase Component: Remote Config
Component version: 4.9.0
Installation method: CocoaPods
Platform: iOS

[REQUIRED] Step 2: Describe the problem

When I call the fetchAndActivate method and the phone has no network then I reactivate the network to restart the request I get an error 8002 (throttled) while I have no problem when on the first call the network is present.

When the problem occurs I have to wait several minutes for the request to work again.

This is problematic because I want when the minimumFetchInterval is reached the request to the Firebase servers is a success to allow access to my application.

How can I solve this problem?

Here is my code:

let settings = RemoteConfigSettings()
settings.fetchTimeout = 30
settings.minimumFetchInterval = 60*60
#if DEBUG
settings.minimumFetchInterval = 0
#endif
remoteConfigService.configSettings = settings

remoteConfigService.fetchAndActivate(completionHandler: { (status, error) -> Void in
	if status != .error {
		// Load my config
	} else {
	 	// Manage error
	}
})

Thank you in advance.
