7 webhooks events for notes field update

English Forum Developers & API

Hi there,

I’m back from holidays and playing again with Asana webhooks, events and API.
I’m trying to understand the way it works. After my previous post, I could understand that I will have to fetch task detail with Asana API call … but … :slight_smile:

I have established a webhook which is supposed to send events when task are created, assigned or updated … so cool, I’m receiving events.

Now, let’s say I’m creating a a task and then updating notes field (I mean writing content to my task).
I’m receiving 7 different events (with several changes on the same field in each event) … just for a 4 lines task description.

Is it normal ?

Is there a way to reduce this number of events ?

Thanks for your help.

Best regards.

Hi @Ghislain_Flandin,

(FYI I moved your post to the Developers & API forum area.)

Yes, this is expected behavior for Asana; Asana’s webhooks are known to be noisy. You’ll have to deal with it appropriately on your end.
