Overview of Google Appsheet#

The Google Appsheet API enables programmatic interactions with your custom AppSheet applications, allowing you to streamline processes, automate actions, and interlink your apps with other services. Leveraging Pipedream's powerful serverless platform, you can create workflows that react to events in real-time, automate tasks, and connect to countless other services with minimal effort. Whether you're updating datasets, syncing with external systems, or triggering complex chains of actions, combining AppSheet with Pipedream can supercharge your productivity and enhance your app's capabilities.

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)
  },
})
