Rate Limiting

Set Max Requests per Second

• Navigate to the "Delivery Rate" section in the webhook configuration

• Enter the maximum number of requests allowed per second

• Example: Setting to 5 means FlowLink will send no more than 5 requests per second

  

Implement Queue Management

• FlowLink automatically queues requests that exceed the rate limit

• Requests are processed in order as capacity becomes available

Best Practice: Start with a conservative rate and increase gradually while monitoring performance

Error Handling

Configure Retry Logic

Retry Delay

• Set the initial time to wait before the first retry attempt (in milliseconds)

• Example: 2000 ms (2 seconds)

Retry Strategy

Choose between:

• Linear: Consistent intervals between retry attempts

• Exponential: Increasing intervals between retries

Example comparison (2000 ms initial delay):

• Linear: Retries at 2s, 4s, 6s, 8s after initial failure

• Exponential: Retries at 2s, 6s, 14s, 30s after initial failure

Max Attempts

• Set the maximum number of retry attempts before marking the action as failed

• Example: If set to 4, FlowLink will try the initial attempt plus 4 retries

  

Error Logging

• FlowLink automatically logs errors in the HubSpot workflow history

• Review logs regularly to identify and address recurring issues

Best Practice:
Implement additional error handling actions in your workflow for critical processes
