  • 1.  Script Data Action

    Hello,

    When the script is loading, it loads all the Data Actions defined in it. Under Chrome/Developer Tools/Network section, we can see them (custom_xxxxx) :

    • Does that mean, each time a script is popping, some API calls are made in order to retrieve all the data actions defined ?

    OR

    • an API call is made only when we execute a data action in the script.

    Just trying to understand because we had some rate limits error 429 !

    Thank you in advance,

    Regards,

    CHARAF

    Hi Charaf,

    I apologize. This post slipped by my team. I am talking with our product management team and will hopefully have an answer shortly.

    Thanks, John Carnell Manager, Developer Engagement

    Hi Charaf,

    Just got done talking with our Scripts team. For organizations that are calling a large number of data actions you could run into the 429 errors that you are seeing. However, the script's code will automatically retry on 429 ten times and use a backoff mechanism between each call. So, the call to the data action should go through but might take longer to process the request.

    The scripts team does have a ticket out there to reduce some of their network traffic because they load the schemas for each data action every time they make a data action call. I do not a timeline for when this change would go in.

    I would recommend you contact our Care support team and open a ticket with them referencing this post. They can help direct this to our scripts/data action team and see if you can either get a rate-limit increase for your organization (this is not guaranteed) or if a defect will be opened around this.

    Thanks, John Carnell Manager, Developer Engagement
