Delay the execution of your workflow for a specific amount of time (does not count against your compute time).
The College Football Data API is a treasure trove for developers and sports analysts wanting to tap into detailed college football statistics and scores. With this API, you can fetch a wide array of data, from team stats to player metrics and game results. Harness this information to fuel apps, dashboards, and automated reporting systems, or to enrich your sports-related datasets.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
college_football_data: {
type: "app",
app: "college_football_data",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.collegefootballdata.com/conferences`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.college_football_data.$auth.api_key}`,
"Accept": `application/json`,
},
})
},
})
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.
export default defineComponent({
async run({steps, $}) {
// Specify the amount of time to delay your workflow in milliseconds
return $.flow.delay(5000)
},
})
