Loop Lockouts

Loop Lockouts

July 30, 20241 min read

Sometimes you may have a loop created in BILT accidentally when two actions are set to feed into one another, or feed back into itself repeatedly. This creates an infinite loop of actions which can slow down BILT and create issues. Most of the time this is something done unintentionally, so now we have enabled BILT to catch this and enable a Loop Lock to prevent the issue from occurring.

Campaigns, Triggers, and Workflows will automatically be “Loop Locked” when they reach 50 starts/action executions for the same contact in less than 30 minutes. For example, if you have one contact record added to the same Campaign or Workflow 50 times in 29 minutes, the Loop Lock will be automatically enabled. You’ll see an error code that looks something like this at the top of your screen:

If you receive a Loop error, contact Support and we can review the Campaign, Trigger, or Workflow to assist you with unlocking it and resolving the Loop.


Moe Ameen is a real estate investor, software creator, and general over-caffeinated human who somehow made automation cool (or at least tolerable). He built a cutting-edge real estate CRM because manually chasing leads is so last century. Specializing in creative finance, deal structuring, and making things unnecessarily efficient, he helps investors close more deals while doing less actual work. When he's not automating the real estate world, he’s probably pretending to work while staring at spreadsheets or convincing himself that buying another domain name is a good idea.
