Nuki Bridge often returns 503 - not working correct

Usually a 503 error means that your integration is throwing to many requests at the bridge API, because the bridge can handle only one connection/request at a time:

Furthermore the bridge does not cache or retry requests. So if something is executed with 5 minutes delay, it must have been coming from your integration with a 5 minutes delay. You can use the /log command of the bridge API to debug such cases.
