Description
The wait action does not work correctly.
when I want it to wait 15 minutes, 900 seconds, it can take a few hours until it launches the action.

How to replicate

action topics (why eat) → followed by → wait 900 seconds + message to the teams channel:
it fails → because it takes many hours to send it.
The connection is not working well.
Is it possible to fix it?

The Wait action isn’t really designed for wait times that long. Keep in mind that these actions run directly on the device and that assumes that the device remains active for that long. It’s not a back end server process where these actions occur. The Wait action is really meant to prevent race conditions where you want to make sure the previous action completed before the next action executes.
