Sleep block
The sleep block pauses the automation for a defined amount of time. When the sleep block is executed, the automation continues processing data from previous blocks after the wait time has passed.
A sleep block is commonly used in following situation:
- When you have a call URL block inside a loop, and the automation might exceed the rate limit of the API.
