title: "io.wait()"
sidebarTitle: "wait()"
description: "`io.wait()` waits for the specified amount of time before continuing the Job. Delays work even if you're on a serverless platform with timeouts, or if your server goes down. They utilize [resumability](/documentation/concepts/resumability) to ensure that the Run can be resumed after the delay."
