The Delay Task in vDesigner 2.0 is quite simple but very useful for controlling the timing and sequencing of actions in your workflow.

When this task executes, the next task executes after the configured time-delay.

This means it pauses the workflow for a specified number of seconds before continuing to the next task.

The delay is non-blocking to the entire system ,it only pauses the current workflow path, not other parallel workflows.

Common Use Cases:

  • Rate Limiting
  • Wait for External Processing
  • Simulating Real-Time Events in a Sequence
  • Sequence Tasks

Here is an example for better understanding. For example:- At first your are using enable/disable task on some elements and then after 10 seconds you want another task to get executed like visible/invisible in my case. Then you can provide time in the delay data task in the static function.
