Timers - NeoSOFT-Technologies/workflow-plugins GitHub Wiki

Timers provide following activities,

  • Timer : Triggers at a specified interval.
  • Start At : Triggers at a specified moment in time.
  • Cron : Triggers periodically based on a specified CRON expression.
  • Clear Timer : Cancel a timer so that it is not executed.

Use Case

  • A Timer is used to create a delay in the workflow to prevent the immediate triggering of a subsequent event/activity.
  • In a workflow whenever a timer node is encountered, then the workflow execution will be paused for the configured amount of minutes/hours and resume from it when the delay time elapses.
