Would I experience delays with a Zap like this?

Howdy!

I’m thinking about building a Zap like this:

When:
A new submission arrives from Formstack

Do:

  1. Make an API call to an app I have
  2. Send an email with Mandrill

Simple enough. My question is, if I have 400 submissions come in over the course of a few minutes (assuming Formstack, my app, and Mandrill will be fine) will each of those resulting Zap run upon the form submission, or will they be queued up?

Basically trying to determine if I can confidently say that the email in the last step will be sent within a couple of minutes of submitting the form.

Hi @ericg 

Good question.

Zap Runs can run in parallel: https://zapier.com/app/history/

The Formstack New Submission Zap trigger is instant.
