The Browse AI API enables the automation of data extraction from websites, turning web pages into organized data. It's built for non-coders and coders alike, allowing for custom web scraping and monitoring tasks. Within Pipedream, you can harness Browse AI to create intricate workflows that trigger actions in other apps based on the data you extract. Think of automated competitive analysis, price tracking, or content changes detection, all streamlined through Pipedream's serverless platform.

Overview of Delay#

The Delay API in Pipedream is a built-in function that allows you to pause a workflow for a specified amount of time. This can be incredibly useful when you need to stagger API calls to avoid rate limits, wait for an external process to complete, or simply introduce a delay between actions in a sequence. With precision up to milliseconds, the Delay API provides a simple yet powerful tool for managing timing in automation workflows.

Connect Delay#

export default defineComponent({
  async run({steps, $}) {
    // Specify the amount of time to delay your workflow in milliseconds
    return $.flow.delay(5000)
  },
})
