IFTTT free tier trigger throttling and unknown polling interval
0 reputation · 10 Jun 2024, 02:21 UTC
The IFTTT free tier imposes a limit on active applets and actions, but the platform does not publish the frequency at which it checks infrequently triggered applets.
Because trigger check frequency and execution latency are not covered by SLAs, it is unclear whether low‑frequency triggers are deprioritized or throttled, and what the actual polling interval is for such triggers.
Does IFTTT throttle or delay actions for triggers that fire less than once per day? What is the polling interval for infrequently triggered applets on the free tier? How does the platform prioritize low‑traffic triggers compared to high‑frequency ones?
