Repetitive API requests; field responsible?

[gjeee]

I have the feeling that FIELD sends a lot of times repetitive API requests (when it fails). I am not sure whether FIELD is responsible for this.

E.g. below you see a request (which fails due to an old reference passed) which is repeated like 8 times
