quick base message returned web hooks are exceeding the threshold rate

I have received the same error using QB Actions so am interested to hear if anyone has further insight on this.

You may only trigger Actions or Webhooks at the rate of 10 per second. Might there be a �loop� where the Webhook is triggering itself?

Hi Abhi,

This error comes up most often when a Webhook/Action is set up so that the webhook triggers itself over and over. For example if a webhook is set to edit a project every time the project is edited without any filters the webhook firing will trigger itself over and over, creating an endless loop that gets cut off.

Another common but slightly harder to see issue is when a webhook fires off to another table and that table fires a webhook back, essentially creating a loop that can feed back and forth or adding up to 10 in one second. For example if I have 5 Webhooks that all fire from my projects table to my Tasks table all at once and those Webhooks trigger 6 Webhooks back to my Projects table, a total of 11 webhooks (6 inbound and 5 outbound) are taking place. 

I'm getting the same error from Automations, one of which only changes data in the same table (the same record actually).
