Hi there,
Array vs. Object
WooCommerce webhook payloads should typically be consistent in their structure. If you are receiving payloads in different formats (object vs. array), it’s essential to standardize the input before processing.
As a start, I’d recommend creating a function to log the payloads of webhooks to see where that’s coming from.
Multiple Webhooks on Variation Update
It’s common for WooCommerce to trigger multiple webhooks if several properties of a product or its variants are updated simultaneously. To handle this, you can implement a mechanism to ignore duplicate hooks within a short timeframe.
Webhook Disabling:
Webhook delays and disables can occur if the server is slow to respond or errors are generated. WooCommerce may disable webhooks that consistently fail.
You can address this by:
- Ensure your webhook endpoint is robust and can handle requests efficiently. This includes proper error handling and timely responses
- Regularly monitor your webhooks through WooCommerce > Settings > Advanced > Webhooks to check their status and manage them. If webhooks are frequently disabled, consider increasing the server’s capacity or optimizing the processing script.
