Hi, my addon is randomly getting this error and it's not just for UrlFetchApp call.

```

NetworkError: Connection failure due to HTTP 500

```

I'm getting this error whenever I'm interacting with Google's API, in my case Slides API.

I'm not able to reproduce this error and it's not even visible in the Log Explorer.

A lot of users are facing this issue, is there anything I can do here? I can submit the issue to Google Bug Tracker but the I don't know the exact steps to reproduce the error. It happens randomly.

Would really appreciate any help!

Forgot to mention it, but if the user refreshes the page and tries again, it works. But It's a very bad user experience.
