Facts About Outbound Messaging

Some Important Facts about Outbound Messaging:

  • Outbound messaging allows you to specify that changes to fields within Salesforce can cause messages with field values to be sent to designated external servers.
  • Outbound messaging uses the notifications() call to send SOAP messages over HTTP(S) to a designated endpoint when triggered by a workflow rule.
  • A single SOAP message can include up to 100 notifications. Each notification contains the object ID and a reference to the associated sObject data.
  • If the endpoint is unavailable, messages will stay in the queue until sent successfully, or until they are 24 hours old. After 24 hours, messages are dropped from the queue.
  • If a message cannot be delivered, the interval between retries increases exponentially, up to a maximum of two hours between retries.
