FAQs
Q: How do I set URGENT priority for a repository?
A: URGENT priority is available only through the REST API — it isn't exposed in the Platform UI. Use the UI to set STANDARD or HIGH priority instead. See Set Priority in the UI.
Q: What's the difference between STANDARD, HIGH, and URGENT priority?
A: STANDARD is the default processing order with a 200-event batch size. HIGH and URGENT both use a 400-event batch size and are processed before STANDARD, with URGENT carrying the highest urgency. See Priority Levels.
Q: What happens if I exceed the HIGH priority limits?
A: The operation may fail with FederationPrioritizationException if you exceed the maximum of 10 HIGH priority repositories per member or the 20% cap by percentage.
Q: Does a priority change take effect immediately?
A: Yes. Once you save the new priority, the change takes effect immediately without requiring a restart or additional sync step.
