We have a use case where it would be useful if HubSpot had the capability to limit the number of contacts that can enroll into a workflow at one time - like a queue.  
Our specific use case is related to a workflow tied to lead processing that validates phone numbers. If recruiters “unlock” too many leads from a 3rd party site at once, then we may hit our rate limits for our validation tool - causing processing issues.  
If we could limit the number of leads that enroll in a workflow - or have a queue for enrollment, so only X number of contacts enroll over time, then this would solve our issue.  
Thanks!

Hi!

Thank you for the feedback! We are currently investigating our options for rate limiting for workflows. I’m going to mark this as “not currently planned” since we don’t have a commitment for this yet, but I wanted to provide an update that we have seen this and are actively monitoring for more feedback. Please continue to upvote and comment here to help us prioritize!

Best,

Kenny
