Rate limit my workflow

Hi!
I am trying to ad a very very short delay to my workflow within an iterator. Basically each step is creating an Airtable record, and since there are over 500 items in the list I am iterating through, I am afraid of getting throttled by Airtable.
I wanted to ad a short delay (half a second) but it seems like with Pabbly Delay the minimum is 1 minute. Is there a way to do what I am trying to do, or do I need to accept a 1 min delay?

Hi @sb96,

The shortest delay time available is 1 minute; it cannot be reduced further. Please note that currently, you cannot use both an Iterator and a Delay step within the same workflow. If you wish to use an Iterator and a Delay step in the same process, you will need to split your workflow into two parts using a Data Forwarder.

To do this, add a Data Forwarder immediately after the Iterator step. Forward the data to a different workflow, then add the remaining steps, including the Delay step, in that workflow.
