Wait wait
The Wait activity is a Flow control component used to introduce a delay between two activities in an Orchestrated campaign. This helps ensure your follow-up activities are better timed and more relevant to user engagement.
For example, you can wait a few days after an email delivery to track opens and clicks before sending a follow-up message.
