# Amazon SNS - New message trigger

The New message trigger monitors a message topic and fetches new messages. Workato processes each message as a new job.

429 RESPONSES

Amazon SNS treats a 429 (Too Many Requests) response as a successful delivery when using the New message trigger. Events that receive a 429 response aren't retried or sent to a Dead Letter Queue (DLQ).

Throttle message delivery using the SNS topic's delivery policy to align with Workato's rate limits and prevent event loss. AWS SNS doesn't treat a 429 as a failure and doesn't trigger retries. You can set the throttlePolicy to maxReceivesPerSecond to control delivery rate. Refer to the AWS SNS documentation (opens new window) for more information.
