A lot of the time they can be used interchangeably. "Rapidly" means at a fast pace or speed, and "quickly" can be used to also mean "immediately", as in "Come here quickly!".

The meaning is the same, however, the words are not always interchangeable. Here's a discussion on the differences in use: https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/quick-fast-swift-rapid.172618/

the exception would be phrases that always use a specific word, like "quick thinking" or "rapid-fire"

"quickly" is probably more common. In most cases I don't think there's much difference between the two.
