Wait for Time Node

The Wait for Time Node allows you to create time-based delays in your chatbot flow. This is particularly useful for marketing campaigns, follow-up messages, or any scenario where you want to send messages at specific intervals. The next node in the flow will only be triggered after the specified time delay has elapsed.

Features

  • Set delays in minutes, hours, or days
  • Precise timing control for message sequences
  • Automatic flow continuation after delay
  • Support for long-term campaign scheduling
  • No user interaction required during wait time
