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 Plecto#

The Plecto API allows you to automate the process of data visualization and performance tracking. With Pipedream, you can harness this API to create real-time dashboards, generate reports, and update KPIs automatically. Pipedream's serverless platform makes it simple to connect Plecto with other services, trigger events, process data, and more. Whether you're syncing sales data, updating leaderboards, or notifying teams of their performance, Pipedream offers a robust and flexible way to streamline these workflows.

Connect Plecto#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    plecto: {
      type: "app",
      app: "plecto",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://app.plecto.com/api/v2/members`,
      auth: {
        username: `${this.plecto.$auth.username}`,
        password: `${this.plecto.$auth.password}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

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)
  },
})
