Pause Step

The Pause Step stops your process for a set amount of time. You use it to control when things happen in your automation.

How to Use the Pause Step

Add a Pause Step to your process when you need to add a delay. This helps when you're waiting for applications to load or for things to show up on a screen.

Step 1: Add the Pause Step

Drag the "Pause Step" from the available steps into your process flow.

Step 2: Set the Waiting Time

Click on the Pause Step in your process.
Type the waiting time in milliseconds (ms) into the "Waiting time" field.

Important: 1 second is 1000 milliseconds. For example, type 5000 to pause for 5 seconds.

Waiting time (Required)

How long, in milliseconds, the process will pause.
