Overview of The Odds API#
With The Odds API on Pipedream, you can access a range of bookmakers and exchanges to get live and upcoming sports odds. This integration allows you to create workflows for odds comparison, betting opportunities, or even to power a custom alerting system for when odds reach a certain threshold. The data provided by The Odds API can be used to inform decisions or feed into other apps for enhanced functionality.
Connect The Odds API#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
the_odds_api: {
type: "app",
app: "the_odds_api",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {

},
})
},
})
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)
},
})
