The time that it takes to receive an update for the auto_save webhook will decrease from 20 seconds to 5 seconds for content that has been changed in the Web App.

Q: Why is this being done?

We are deprecating a legacy service that had prevented closer to real-time updates for entry and asset updates from being called quicker.

Q: How does this affect me?

The time that it takes to receive an auto save update via webhooks for a web app change will decrease. Changes made in the web app will call the webhook after five seconds as opposed to after 20 seconds.

If you are consistently editing an entry in the web app for one minute, and you have a webhook configured to be called for auto_save events, that webhook will be called 12 times in a minute whereas previously the webhook would be called 3 times in a minute.

Please note that the date for this change to take effect has changed from August 10th to August 17th.
