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 Occasion#

The Occasion API provides a suite of tools to manage and automate event booking and scheduling. Through Pipedream, you can harness this API to create powerful automations by triggering workflows based on booking activity, syncing event data with other services, managing customer information, and more. Utilizing Pipedream's capability to connect with hundreds of apps, you can extend the functionality of the Occasion API to streamline operations, enhance customer experiences, and leverage event data in innovative ways.

      auth: {
        username: `${this.occasion.$auth.api_login}`,
        password: `${this.occasion.$auth.api_secret}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

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)
  },
})
