Need to add delay for Business rule in scoped application

[Pavankumar_1]

Hi experts,

Need to add  delay to the business rule in scoped application. using the business rule I am creating the records before creating the records it should wait for some time. for that wait I used the below scripts.

script1:

var when = new GlideDateTime();
var delay = new GlideTime();
delay.setValue("00:02:00");
when.add(delay);

script 2:
gs.sleep(10000); //10 secs

I tried both scripts on Business rules. Please suggest the script to pause BR on scoped application.

Thanks,

Pavan

Hello

In scoped app, gs.sleep() is not allowed you can use this to use some delay

ms means milliseconds here

function sleep(ms) {
  var endSleep = new GlideDuration().getNumericValue() + ms;
  while ( new GlideDuration().getNumericValue() < endSleep) {
   //wait 
  }

  return;
}

Please Mark ✅ Correct/helpful, if applicable, Thanks!!

Hi,

this works in scoped app

var seconds = parseInt(10, 10) * 1000; // 10 seconds delay

var start = parseInt(new Date().getTime()) + seconds;

while(start>parseInt(new Date().getTime())){

// do nothing

}
