I am working to integrate with an API that has a limit on the number of requests per second. Is there a way, when running a for loop in python to delay each cycle? Conceptually, something like --
def function(request):
for x in [a,b,c,d,...]:
do something
wait y seconds
Thank you.

Adding a Python sleep() Call With time.sleep() Python has built-in support for putting your program to sleep. The time module has a function sleep() that you can use to suspend execution of the calling thread for however many seconds you specify.
To create pause or delay in a JavaScript for loop, we should use await with a for-of loop. to define the wait function that returns a promise that calls setTimeout with resolve to resolve the promise in ms milliseconds. Then we define the loop function that runs a for-of loop to loop through an array.
Time delay loops are often used in programs. These are loops that have no other function than to kill time. Delay loops can be created by specifying an empty target statement.
To use Javascript promises in a for loop, use async / await . This waits for each promiseAction to complete before continuing to the next iteration in the loop.
import time
...
time.sleep(5)
This will sleep for 5 seconds. See http://docs.python.org/library/time.html#time.sleep
