Webhook Failure Handling

Suggest Edits

Webhook timeout
Each webhook request is queued for 10 seconds to get a response from the endpoint URL. If no response is received within 10 seconds, the request will attempt to reconnect to the server up to 5 times.

Webhook retry
The retry mechanism sends the webhook up to 5 times before failing with exponential backoff. Webhooks will wait for a minimum retry delay of 30 seconds to a maximum retry delay of 10 minutes between each attempt.

Automatic Webhook Deactivation
If a webhook fails up to 20 times in a row, it generates an error log, deactivates the webhook, and sends a failure notification email automatically.

You will receive an email as shown below.
