\n \n \n\n \n

delay.val.run

Schedule HTTP requests to be executed in the future

POST https://delay.val.run

\n\n \n

How It Works

Send a POST request

Include the target URL, timing (delay or specific time), and optional request config

We store and schedule it

Your request is saved and queued for execution at the specified time

Request fires automatically

When the time comes, we send the HTTP request to your target URL

\n\n \n

Quick Start

\n \n

Using the TypeScript Client

import { delay } from \"https://esm.town/v/std/delay/client.ts\";\n\n// Delay by 5 minutes\nawait delay.schedule({\n  url: \"https://myapp.com/webhook\",\n  delaySeconds: 300,\n});\n\n// Or schedule for a specific time\nawait delay.schedule({\n  url: \"https://myapp.com/webhook\",\n  method: \"POST\",\n  headers: { \"Authorization\": \"Bearer token\" },\n  body: { orderId: 123 },\n  executeAt: \"2024-12-25T10:00:00Z\",\n});

\n\n

Using fetch directly

await fetch(\"https://delay.val.run\", {\n  method: \"POST\",\n  headers: { \"Content-Type\": \"application/json\" },\n  body: JSON.stringify({\n    url: \"https://myapp.com/webhook\",\n    delaySeconds: 300,\n  }),\n});

\n\n

Using cURL

curl -X POST https://delay.val.run \\\n  -H \"Content-Type: application/json\" \\\n  -d '{\"url\": \"https://myapp.com/webhook\", \"delaySeconds\": 300}'

\n\n \n

Limitations

\n ⚡\n ~1 minute precision: Requests are processed every minute, so execution may be up to 60 seconds after the scheduled time\n

\n 🔁\n No retries: If a request fails, it will not be automatically retried\n

\n ❌\n No cancellation: Once scheduled, requests cannot be cancelled\n

\n 🔓\n No authentication: This is an open service with no API keys\n

\n 🧪\n Experimental: This service may change or become unavailable without notice\n
