Failing to retrieve attachments from EWS server

We have a file attachment synching feature that is used by an Outlook add-in (OfficeJS). The EWS token and URL are fetched using [3] and [4]



We fetch attachments using EWS SOAP API calls detailed here[2]. However, we have noticed that some of these calls fail randomly and will succeed in subsequent retries. I do not think this is related to signed emails [1]. Is there a rate limit on the EWS SOAP API calls?
