When bulk enrolling objects in a workflow that contains custom code with api calls, we encounter rate limits. All objects are enrolled at the same time and are thus communicating with the api at the same time.

It would be helpful if there is an option to enroll objects 1 by 1, such that there is some time between every api call.

Hi @EvanUijthoven - I posted a very similar idea here a few weeks back: [https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/Rolling-Workflow-Enrollment-or-Delay-Settings-API-Call-Timeout/idi-p/947036](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/Rolling-Workflow-Enrollment-or-Delay-Settings-API-Call-Timeout/idi-p/947036)
