Upcoming Sunset: Removing the Webhooks rateLimitPolicy and period fields
What’s happening?
On May 20th, 2024, we will be removing two deprecated fields from the different versions of the Webhooks API:
- The rateLimitPolicy field will be removed from the legacy v1 Webhooks API
- The period field will be removed from the v3 Webhooks API
Webhooks currently only support a concurrency limit, and have not supported a rate limit for several years. These fields have been optional in the API and haven't had any effect on how webhooks operate.
Why is this happening?
Because we have implemented a concurrency limit rather than a rate limit, this field is no longer relevant. Removal of this field will also eliminate any confusion and make it clear that we are implementing a concurrency limit and not a rate limit for the Webhooks API..
When is this happening?
The sunset for this feature is scheduled for May 20, 2024. If you have any inquiries or concerns, please visit our community post to share your feedback or ask questions.
