Wait

WaitAsync suspends the workflow for a duration. The Lambda terminates and is re-invoked when the timer fires — you pay for compute time only on the resume side.

Signature

Task WaitAsync(
    TimeSpan duration,
    string? name = null,
    CancellationToken cancellationToken = default);

duration must be at least 1 second and at most 31,622,400 seconds (~1 year).

Example

await ctx.WaitAsync(TimeSpan.FromHours(2), name: "warehouse-processing");

Step + Wait + Step

var validated = await ctx.StepAsync(async _ => Validate(input), name: "validate");
await ctx.WaitAsync(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(3), name: "short_wait");
var processed = await ctx.StepAsync(async _ => Process(validated), name: "process");
