Duplicates Created Because First Request Doesn't Complete Fast Enough

Whenever a customer visits the cart and checkout page on our website, I have set up workflows to create or update a deal in HubSpot.

However, there's a particular scenario that's causing headaches: when a customer proceeds to checkout very quickly after visiting the cart page, it results in the creation of a duplicate deal. This happens because the first request to create a deal hasn't completed, and the search API the looks for a deal to decide if it should create one or update one doesn't find the one created from visiting the cart page, so it creates one.

Hi, @eibach-cv 👋 Thanks for the interesting question. It sounds like some form of race condition is happening. Hey @himanshurauthan, have you run into anything similar in your recent projects?

Best,

Jaycee
