Delay Tool

The Delay Tool allows users to introduce a delay in the execution of tool steps by specifying the number of seconds. This is ideal for use cases such as running a campaign or providing processing delay to other tool steps.

Steps to Use the Delay Tool​

Step 1: Access the Tool​

  • Click on Add User Step.
  • From the available options, select the Delay Tool.

Step 2: Input the Number of Seconds​

You need to specify the duration of the delay in seconds. Type the number of seconds you want the delay to last. For example, if you want to introduce a 10-second delay, enter 10 into the Number of seconds field.

Step 3: Execute the Delay​

Once you have entered the desired delay duration, click on Run button and the tool will introduce the delay, pausing the execution of subsequent steps for the specified number of seconds.

Step 5: Utilize the Delay​

You can now incorporate the delay into your workflow for various purposes, such as synchronizing steps, controlling timing in a campaign, or managing processing delays.

Tips for Effective Use​

  • Appropriate Duration: Choose an appropriate delay duration based on your use case to avoid unnecessary wait times.
  • Sequential Steps: Ensure that the delay is placed correctly in the sequence to achieve the desired effect.
  • Testing: Test the delay to confirm that it functions as expected within your tool.
