Description

I'm seeing this error when expanding the Actions tree item.

176967393-7899e74f-1072-4d78-8e49-cc60ef86e666

However, I think it's an issue with my environment because I'm also getting this error in my terminal when using other applications that use the GitHub API.

In the terminal, a GitHub related tool was giving me this error:
could not fetch repositories: could not get information about microsoft/vscode-azurestaticwebapps: GET https://api.github.com/repos/microsoft/vscode-azurestaticwebapps: 403 API rate limit exceeded for user ID 123. [rate reset in 1m01s]

After waiting for the rate to reset, the issue was resolved, but this has happened multiple times this week.
