            If the API producer encounters an internal overload situation of
            itself or of a system it relies on, it should respond with this
            response code, following the provisions in IETF RFC 7231 [13] for
            the use of the "Retry-After" HTTP header and for the alternative to
            refuse the connection. The "ProblemDetails" structure may be
            omitted.

              general framework defined in IETF RFC 7807 [19], the "status" and
              "detail" attributes are mandated to be included by the present

              information about an error. IETF RFC 7807 [19] foresees
              extensibility of the "ProblemDetails" type. It is possible that
              particular APIs in the present document, or particular
              implementations, define extensions to define additional attributes
              that provide more information about the error. The description
