Delay Plugin

Note: this component has a complexity level of "expert", which means that objects of this type are not expected to be created or altered. Please contact support for assistance if you believe that you have a need to create or modify this type of object.

The Delay Plugin may be used to cause the server to inject a delay of a specified duration for operations that match the associated criteria. It is primarily intended for testing purposes and is not recommended for use in production environments.
