Hey is there a way to limit the number of workflow executions to a certain amount?
The difficult part is that the workflow gets 50+ requests (the workflow is triggered) every 5-10 seconds and they happen simultaneously.
It looks like your topic is missing some important information. Could you provide the following if applicable.
- n8n version:
- Database (default: SQLite):
- n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
- Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
- Operating system:
Hey @Vasislav , I don’t think you can limit the executions. It will run as many times as there are requests coming in (queued if needed).
What is your use case? Why so many requests in such a short period of time? Are they duplicated requests that you want to limit them somehow rather than process them all?
Hey @ihortom,
Thanks for the answer, I want to allow people to use my api for Numlookupapi (phone verification software) but I don’t want them to go over certain limit. Let say that I want to allow them 10K verifications per month.
The request are not duplicated they are all different (different phone number).
The Numlookuuapi does not allow for bulk request so every phone number has to be verified individually
The “simplest” way that could be done if your app is servered on the server you can control as a web developer is to set browser cookies or local storage. With each request to your webhook you can read (and update) those and determine if the request is allowed. Though this topic/aproach is not related to n8n but rather web app development generally.
