How are webhooks queued?

Each incoming webhook is immediately acknowledged (200 response) and added to the processing queue. This ensures the sender doesn't timeout while you process.

What happens if processing fails?

Failed items are automatically retried with exponential backoff. After max retries, they're moved to a dead letter queue for manual review.

Can I control the batch size?

Yes! Configure the batch size in the queue processor settings. Smaller batches process faster but have more overhead; larger batches are more efficient for bulk operations.

How It Works

Webhooks are received and added to a queue. A separate process reads from the queue in batches, processes the events, and handles any failures with automatic retries. Rate limiting prevents overwhelming downstream services.
