Delay Workflow with the Delay API

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

Overview of Headless Testing#

The Headless Testing API unlocks the power of automated browser tasks, enabling developers to run end-to-end tests in a headless Chrome environment. This service is crucial for continuous integration pipelines, allowing for the execution of scripts that verify the functionality and performance of web applications without the need for a graphical user interface. With Pipedream, you can connect the Headless Testing API to a myriad of other services, triggering automated tests based on specific events, storing results, and even notifying team members about test outcomes.

Connect Headless Testing#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    headless_testing: {
      type: "app",
      app: "headless_testing",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://api.headlesstesting.com/api/v1/user`,
      params: {
        token: `${this.headless_testing.$auth.api_key}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

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)
  },
})
