Hey @montilla21

We have created a small workaround as per your condition, please review the following shared workflow once and let us know if that works for you.

Further, set the action step inside the router step to make the action step work.

Hi Supreme,

Thanks a lot for your quick and great reply!

I think it's my fault but I am not sure that your solution would work, since I need the trigger to be "Google Sheets : New or Updated Spreadsheet Row".

Please check the screenshot, Right now my workflow works like this:

Current:
1. Trigger: Google Sheets : New or Updated Spreadsheet Row
2. Action: WhatsApp Cloud API : Send Template Message

And I would like it to be something like this:

1. Trigger: When a there is a new Spreadsheet row.
2. If current time is 9 to 18... then
3. Action: WhatsApp Cloud API : Send Template Message
4. Else... wait until 9 of the next day
5. Action: WhatsApp Cloud API : Send Template Message

What would be your workaround?

Thanks a lot and once again sorry for the lack of info
