Google Admin SDK : Reports API Activities : Watch > Sends a tones of same notification

Question

I have created a Gsuite channel as per this reference https://developers.google.com/admin-sdk/reports/v1/reference/activities/watch and its working fine. I can receive the webhooks for all the admin activities.

The problem is sometimes event such as "ADD_GROUP_MEMBER" or "REMOVE_GROUP_MEMBER" getting 10 to 12 times for the same user email and group email. I am also sending the response 200 for each webhooks but still, Gsuite keeps sending me the same events.

You can check on the attached events. I have received one webhook at 19:17:24 with some group member change. After 54 seconds I have again received the same event with all the same data. This happens almost 12 times. It only happens sometimes but when it happens it just hangs my server. Any idea of how can I prevent this?

Any help would be appreciated Thanks!!
