Delay

The Delay by MESA app allows you to delay or pause your workflow before it can proceed to the next action. Delays can be used after a trigger has occurred.

You can insert a number and select from Minute(s), Hours(s), Day(s), Week(s), or Month(s).

The minimum amount of delay is determined by your billing plan:

• Flex plan: 15 minutes

• Advanced plan: 5 minutes

• Unlimited plan: 1 minute

• Enterprise plan: 1 minute

• Affiliate plan: 1 minute

The maximum amount of delay is determined by your billing plan:

• Flex plan: 30 days

• Advanced plan: 30 days

• Unlimited plan: 60 days

• Enterprise plan: 90 days

• Affiliate plan: 30 days

Advanced Settings

In the Advanced Options section, you can choose to skip the Delay step entirely so that the workflow runs for any tests. If you are running a test, this is recommended so you don't have to wait until the workflow continues.

🗒 Note: The Delay will be skipped If Skip delay when running a test or when this step is replayed is checked and the Delay step is replayed from the Activity tab. If an earlier step in the workflow is replayed (for example the trigger step), the Delay step will not be skipped.
