Adding Delay to HTTP API Columns for Sequential Execution in Apify

·

Is there a way to add a delay before an HTTP API column runs? I have an HTTP API column that passes data to an Apify Actor and another that pulls the JSON file produced from that actor. I keep getting an empty JSON result in the second column because it runs right after the first column but before the actor has competed its run.

Nevermind. Apify has a separate "Run Actor synchronously and get dataset items", so the second column is not necessary 🤦

Ah, nice! We’ve seen a few people using Postman’s “echo” function (you call it, and it brings a response back in under 10 seconds). It’s been pretty helpful for handling delays.
