Prefer: respond-async header doesn't work at microsoft graph api

Question

I'm trying to use microsoft graph api to make CRUD operations with excel files on onedrive.
As far as there is no way to update multiple non-adjacent ctlls in single request I'm tryung to use Prefer: respond-async header in my batch request.

const response = await this.client
  .api('/$batch')
  .header('Prefer', 'respond-async')
  .header('workbook-session-id', this.sessionId)
  .post({ requests: batchRequests });

but instead of getting 202 response, I'm waiting till my requests will be resolved and most of them (4/6) are failed with 429 error.

Need help to find the answer is there any way to update data in multiple non-adjusent cells or how should I use "prefer: respond-async" header so it would work for my requests.
