Wait
Introducing delays in scenario execution.
Node Description
Wait - an action-type node necessary for introducing a pause during scenario execution using:
- setting a delay time, for example, 30 minutes;
- setting a specific time until which the wait is required, for example, 2024-01-01T00:00:00Z.
Node Configuration
To configure the Wait node, it is necessary to fill in the required or optional fields in one of the two tabs: Wait until or Delay.
Wait until
The Wait until tab is necessary for setting the time until which one must wait before executing the scenario nodes that follow the Wait node. Configuration is done using the fields:
- Date and Time - a field for selecting the date and time in the ISO-8601 format when the scenario nodes following the Wait node should be executed.
- Timezone (mandatory field) - a field for selecting the timezone according to which the pause should be set.
Delay
The Delay tab is necessary for setting the waiting period after which the scenario nodes following the Wait node should be executed. Configuration is done using the fields:
- Days - a field for selecting the number of days in the waiting period;
- Hours - a field for selecting the number of hours in the waiting period;
- Minutes - a field for selecting the number of minutes in the waiting period;
- Seconds - a field for selecting the number of seconds in the waiting period.
When calculating the waiting time, the values entered in the fields are summed up. For example, the waiting time will be 1 day, 4 hours, 32 minutes, and 59 seconds if the field values are:
- Days - 1;
- Hours - 4;
- Minutes - 32;
- Seconds - 59.
