Webhook Configuration

Webhook Configuration lets you set the maximum connections per second for all webhooks in your organization. This limit determines the maximum connections permitted to webhook URLs at any given time. Once the limit is reached, connections are efficiently throttled to avoid surpassing it.

By configuring webhooks, you can designate a specific URL for Contentstack to send data to whenever a relevant event occurs in your stack.

NoteDue to the distributed nature of systems, the actual message rate may occasionally exceed the enforced rate limit. For instance, if a rate limit of 50 per second is set, an endpoint might receive messages at a rate of 53 or higher.
