 - `dispatchConditionRejection`: if `condition()` returns `false`, the default behavior is that no actions will be dispatched at all. If you still want a "rejected" action to be dispatched when the thunk was canceled, set this flag to `true`.
 - `idGenerator(): string`: a function to use when generating the `requestId` for the request sequence. Defaults to use [nanoid](./otherExports.mdx/#nanoid).
 - `serializeError(error: unknown) => any` to replace the internal `miniSerializeError` method with your own serialization logic.

 ### Canceling Before Execution
 
-If you need to cancel a thunk before the payload creator is called, you may provide a `condition` callback as an option after the payload creator. The callback will receive the thunk argument and an object with `{getState, extra}` as parameters, and use those to decide whether to continue or not. If the execution should be canceled, the `condition` callback should return a literal `false` value:
+If you need to cancel a thunk before the payload creator is called, you may provide a `condition` callback as an option after the payload creator. The callback will receive the thunk argument and an object with `{getState, extra}` as parameters, and use those to decide whether to continue or not. If the execution should be canceled, the `condition` callback should return a literal `false` value or a promise that should resolve to `false`. If a promise is returned, the thunk waits for it to get fulfilled before dispatching the `pending` action, otherwise it proceeds with dispatching synchronously.
