# Delays and Retries

Inside your Onyx folder, you will find a file called delay.csv\
In that file you can edit your delay for any site in real time. \
The delay is counted in milliseconds (so 2000 means 2 seconds).\
The retry count defines how often a task will retry a step if it fails.\
\
For Shopify, you have 2 delays: "shopify" and "shopify\_monitor".\
The first one is for every step except monitoring (for exmaple after an error).\
The second one is only for monitoring. You can f.e. lower it a couple of seconds before an expected drop to maximize your chance of catching a restock.\
\
Suggested Delays are:

* Shopify: 2000
* Shopify Monitor: 200-2000
* Amazon: 2500-3000
* QueueIT: 3000-15000 (you can set a really high delay once your tasks are in the queue to save proxy data)
