Hello,

I’m using a workflow for onboarding that makes calls to an external API. This API needs some time between request and the workflow steps are executing too quickly.

Is it possible to add a wait time before the execution of a Step? Or maybe add a step to wait some time?

Yes, you can have a step wait to be executed. You can simply add it as an attribute to the step:

<Step icon="Task" name="Step Name" wait="5">

The value is the number in minutes of how long to wait. The workflow will continue after that minute duration has elapsed and the Perform Maintenance task has run with the Process background workflow events argument checked (every 5 mins OOTB).

You can specify a value of -1 for the workflow to continue after the next Performance Maintenance run if you just need a very brief pause.

Hi @bruno-co ,

You can either add the wait attribute directly to the existing workflow step to introduce a delay, or insert a new step specifically designed to handle the wait logic like below

 <Step icon="Wait" name="Wait Step" posX="555" posY="8" wait="10">
    <Transition to="nest step"/>
  </Step>
