Overview of Pdfless#
The Pdfless API provides a suite of tools for creating and manipulating PDF documents, enabling users to generate PDFs from HTML, merge multiple PDFs into one, split a PDF into separate files, and convert PDFs to other formats. By incorporating the Pdfless API into Pipedream workflows, you can automate document processing tasks, streamline data extraction, and integrate with other services to manage documents as part of larger business processes.

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)
},
})
