What is required to utilize the 'Wait for a duration of time' action?

To utilize the 'Wait for a duration of time' action in ServiceNow's Flow Designer, it is essential to specify a defined duration and schedule. This action is designed to pause the flow for a specified amount of time before proceeding to the next action.

The duration can be a set time interval, such as minutes, hours, or days, enabling the flow to wait for the exact period required to meet business needs. Additionally, if you need to establish a more specific schedule (like waiting until a particular date or time), having this defined duration allows the flow to effectively manage timing and ensure tasks are executed at appropriate intervals.

Other options, such as needing a specific list of records, a decision table, or an active published workflow, do not relate to the fundamental requirement of specifying the duration for the wait action. The focus is solely on setting the timing parameters for the flow to function as intended.
