Plugin details

Workflow Lock brings true concurrency control to your Bubble apps.
When users trigger workflows at the same time, Bubble processes them in parallel. Without protection, this can cause:
• Duplicate payments
• Oversold inventory
• Corrupted balances
• Conflicting database updates
• Inconsistent business logic

This plugin eliminates those risks by introducing a distributed locking system that ensures only one workflow per user can access a critical resource at a time.

Locks are secure, server-side, automatically expire to prevent deadlocks, and require zero configuration.

Build safer, production-ready apps with reliable concurrency control.

🛠 Perfect For
• 💳 Payment processing
• 🏦 Wallet & balance updates
• 📦 Inventory management
• 🎟 Ticketing systems
• 📊 Financial calculations
• 🔁 High-frequency backend workflows
• 🧠 Complex state transitions

If your app handles money, stock, counters, or shared resources — you need locking.

Instructions

📘 How to Use 1. Add Acquire Lock before any critical workflow step.
2. Continue your logic only when “acquired” is yes.
3. After completing the operation, add Release Lock using the returned owner value.

That’s it. Your workflow is now protected from concurrent conflicts.
