Important Additional Notes

In our upcoming release (v6.9.0 or later), we are excited to introduce a new feature available in a controlled Early Access mode. This feature allows a limited number of Messaging APIs, Event API, and Inbound Webhook requests that exceed tenant-level throughput (TPS) limits to be accepted and queued for processing, instead of being rejected.

  • Key Highlights:
    • Enhanced Throughput: Once this feature is enabled for your tenant, you can exceed your subscribed
      TPS limits by 1.5 times (up to a maximum of 100 TPS) for a duration of up to 30 minutes per day and a
      total of up to 8 hours per month. The 8-hour monthly limit resets at the start of each calendar month.
    • Improved Customer Experience: This feature is designed to help maintain a seamless customer
      experience during unexpected surges in transaction rates or volumes.
  • API Response Changes:
    • Updated Description: For requests accepted under this burst mode, the response body description in
      the Messaging APIs, Event API, and Inbound Webhooks will be updated to "Queued in burst mode."
    • Unchanged Response Code: The response code for these requests will remain the same.
  • Actions Required:
    • Integration Adjustments: If you wish to utilize this feature, please ensure to make the necessary
      changes on your end to handle the updated response descriptions. The aim is to enable you to deliver a
      seamless customer experience when your transaction rates and/or volumes go up temporarily due to
      unforeseen events. Please contact your account representative if you are interested in accessing this
      feature during the Early Access period.
