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.
