Limiting Trigger / Webhook to Maximum Number of Leads

hello.

unfortunately, Marketo does not have a solution that allows you to set a maximum number of leads for a trigger or webhook (which is by definition, a trigger!).

does anyone in the Community have any creative ways around this?

 

Thanks!

Don't know about a trigger, but if you control the webhook, you can keep a counter on the webhook side and then return an error after n number of requests.  Of course this won't stop the webhook from being called, but it will stop it from modifying/launching anything.

Thanks for the tip, Sanford! Unfortunately, the purpose of our webhooks in most cases is to pass data to clients!

Hmm, well... I am the adventurous sort so I would probably run everything through my proxy server and do the counting there.  I guess short of that you'd have to tell them to program in the maximum.  What is the reason they don't want all the 'hooks to hit their server?
