Multiple product updates mean dropped webhooks

I have the following webhooks set up for my custom app:

products/create
products/update
products/delete
collections/create
collections/update
collections/delete
inventory_items/update

 

I am in the process of testing some updates to tags I want to process on variant price changes. I have noticed that when I save a product variants prices (in the bulk editor) for the first time, the "products/update" webhook is successfully triggered and processed by my app. If I then make another change to the same product variants prices, another webhook is NOT fired. I have also tried updating something like the product description, again no webhook is fired.

 

This happens on any product in my catalogue, I cannot trigger more than one product update webhook call.

Hi @lucyfolk-stagin,

 

You should be getting products/update webhooks when you change the description of a product. Can you provide some information regarding the shop, date and product ID that you are not receiving the webhooks for? 

 

Cheers
