+### Receiving duplicate or multiple web hook requests triggered by one event

+When GitLab sends a webhook it expects a response in 10 seconds (set default value). If it does not receive one, it'll retry the webhook.
+If the endpoint doesn't send its HTTP response within those 10 seconds, GitLab may decide the hook failed and retry it.
