Delay
Delay, pause, suspend, or have the execution of your workflow wait for as little as one millisecond, or as long as one year.
Integrate the Delay API with the Delay API
Setup the Delay API trigger to run a workflow which integrates with the Delay API. Pipedream's integration platform allows you to integrate Delay and Delay remarkably fast. Free for developers.

Popular Delay and Delay Actions#
Delay the execution of your workflow for a specific amount of time (does not count against your compute time).

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)
},
})
