These elements manage timing and repetition within a scenario. They give you flexibility in how data is routed and when steps are executed.
Wait
The Wait element pauses the scenario before continuing. You can define timing in several ways:
- Fixed delay – wait a specific number of seconds, minutes, or hours.
- Until date/time – pause until an exact date.
- Within specific hours – restrict continuation to certain times (e.g. only between 10:00–18:00).
- Next working day / weekday – continue execution at the start of the next working day or on a specified weekday.
Breaker
Breaker is a step that stops the flow after a defined number of repetitions, including the initial run.
For example, if you have a branch with a WAIT step that should repeat until a certain condition is met, you can use Breaker to limit the number of runs, such as 4. This means that when the 5th run is about to start, the Breaker step will stop the flow.
This is especially useful when using WAIT in an integration, because a badly configured WAIT inside a looped branch can cause the channel to time out in the ping tree and delay the selling process.
