Webhook Relay Requests #55

Closed PappyChappy1 closed 1 year ago

PappyChappy1 commented 1 year ago

I had the Webhooks relay working, but then quickly hit the rate limit - it looked to be doing 25 queries per day and the free account only allows 150 per month. Is there a way to limit? Is this related to how often status changes, and how many zones are configured?

Not really 130 per month is going to be 5 per day and if you have 8 zones that run daily you exceed that. The volume is tied to the number of zones and how often they start, stop and pause. The webhook that is created will send events for. Zone status Weather Intelligence Device status Rain Delay Schedule status

It skips events for Rain Sensor Water budget Zone Delta Delta

If you have a schedule run 8 runs it should sent 2 event for the schedule and 16 for the zone and maybe a few more for soak time. Which is close to the 25 number you were seeing.

If you can use port forwarding that might be a better option.

I was able to get port forwarding working (not sure why I was previously struggling), so have disabled the Webhook relay for now - thanks for the reply!
