Advanced patterns
Apply advanced automation patterns—rate limits, idempotency keys, and retry policies—to keep high-volume workflows reliable under load and failure.
At scale, small mistakes amplify. This section covers defensive patterns so automation stays reliable under load.
Read these articles before opening your integration to high-traffic events.
Rate limits
Understand per-workspace and per-integration automation rate limits, how throttling works, and patterns to design workflows that stay within quota.
Idempotency
Use idempotency keys to make automation safe under retries: scope keys, store processed requests, and handle payload conflicts without duplicate side effects.
Retry policies
Configure exponential backoff, maximum attempt counts, and dead-letter handling so workflow steps recover from transient errors without lost events.
