How create a 2-second pause for each formula added in a Auto Fill Down created via Google Script?

Question

I have a custom function to send messages to Telegram from values that are in the cells of my table.

With Auto Fill Down created at the same time, Telegram warns that it has hit the simultaneous sending limit when there are many different cells with values, so I need to find a way to add a 2 second pause for each formula that is added in the cells and do not create a queue for sending.

My script currently looks like this:

  var sheetName = "Sheet4";
  var sss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
  var sheet = sss.getSheetByName(sheetName);
  sheet.getRange('AB1').setFormula('=IF(Z1="","",EnviarTelegram($AA$1,$AA$2,URLredirect(U1),Z1))');
  var lr = sheet.getLastRow();
  var fillDownRange = sheet.getRange(1, 28, lr);
  sheet.getRange('AB1').copyTo(fillDownRange);

Example of my need:

Formula added in AB1
=IF(Z1="","",EnviarTelegram($AA$1,$AA$2,URLredirect(U1),Z1))

2 second pause

Formula added in AB2
=IF(Z2="","",EnviarTelegram($AA$1,$AA$2,URLredirect(U2),Z2))

2 second pause

Formula added in AB3
=IF(Z3="","",EnviarTelegram($AA$1,$AA$2,URLredirect(U3),Z3))

And so on...

I'm not going to build the entire script for you because if I do then you will never learn how to do it by yourself. But this is the basic idea

const formulas=['formula1','formula2',....];
const ranges=['range1','range2',....];//you will have to figure out how to do this
formulas.forEach((f,i)=>{
  ranges[i].setFormula(f);
  spreadsheetApp.flush();
  Utilities.sleep(delay in milliseconds);
});

Obvious you need to be aware of your quota limits on script time with regard to running such a function with many array elements. Not intended to be an exact answer.
