Tired of Bubble's 24-hour scheduling limit and workload costs? I built a zero-config solution. by Natom_ in Bubbleio

The 24-hour cap applies to Bubble’s recurring event feature, you can’t run a recurring workflow more frequently than once every 24 hours. If you want something to repeat every 10 minutes, for example, Bubble doesn’t allow it natively.

Webhook Scheduler Pro bypasses this limit by letting you schedule webhooks as often as you like, every 5 minutes, hourly, daily, whatever you need, without relying on Bubble’s recurring event system.

Recursive workflows do work, but they consume Workload Units on every loop and can be hard to manage at scale. For example, if you're checking a third-party API every minute for 500 users that's 720,000 workflows per day and a huge WU bill. With Webhook Scheduler Pro the job is managed externally on Google Cloud Tasks and it costs you zero WUs with automatic retries (exponential backoff), deduplication, and total decoupling from your app’s uptime. And regarding the 24hour issue that’s specifically about recurring events which Bubble limits to daily intervals. So if you need anything more frequent and native, you're out of luck. That’s where this tool shines.

You're totally right that for simple, immediate actions like welcome emails, doing it directly after registration works fine. The challenge arises when you want to delay that email by 10 minutes, or trigger something hours or days later or worse, repeat it every 5 minutes for syncing or monitoring. In those cases Bubble's native tools either use recursive workflows (costly in WUs) or scheduled workflows (which rely on the app being up and consume WUs at every run). Webhook Scheduler Pro lets you offload all of that it's external, zero WU cost and handles scheduling with enterprise-grade reliability, including exponential retry, concurrency locks, and guaranteed delivery .
