How to start ActiveGate extension some seconds after the minute?

[AntonioSousa]

In ActiveGate extensions, each execution starts immediately at the minute start. In the case I'm dealing with, I only have results for the minute before, some 8 seconds after the minute starts, because data has some delay.

I would like my extension to start some 10 seconds after the minute start. It seems I cannot control this behavior in Dynatrace, so will probably be "sleeping", although I don't like programs sleeping 😁

In any case, has anyone dealt with this in the past, and got a better solution?

Sleeping is definitely the easiest way. You could also do some spawning of another process and handle it there, but that seems like overkill for the problem.
