Hey there, thanks for the feedback! I'm curious - I've not run into issues with the webhook going any kind of havoc in my setup. What kind of problems are you referring to?
The Havoc -- Your Webhooks would get lost! When working with webhooks, especially Shopify's which has a very short timeout period, you would want to delay processing. Queue First, Ask Questions later! Shopify expects a 200 OK response within 5 seconds, You can’t be certain that your API call would be completed in less than five seconds. Hookdeck responds to your webhook provider immediately & forwards the payload to your destination(Local webserver) for futher processing. Here is a guide I wrote about Shopify webhooks
Hey, sorry for coming back late! I've tweaked around and observed for a while and also tried out Hookdeck! Awesome product, I must say. I like the idea.
Right now, the load on my Shopify instance and API is low (small shop) - responses are currently under 5 seconds and produce no issues so far. I might run into some at some point, though, and will certainly come back at Hookdeck in that case :)
