    Hi Dana-Hasan ,
     
    Yes the delay option is not available now. Thats the reason we might need to go for Power automate as workaround.
     
    Thanks.

    Hi   
     
    I noticed that the Microsoft documentation mentions you can implement a delay between messages using the "Send an Activity" node. However, when I tried it, the drop-down for the activity type didn’t show the Delay option.

    But I agree with Vinoth—using a Power Automate flow as a workaround works!

    Hi  ,
     
    Copilot doesn’t have explicit "wait" or "delay" features.
     
    You can leverage Power Automate in combination with Copilot Studio. Power Automate allows you to add a delay action, which can pause the flow for a specified time before sending the next message.
     
    Trigger the flow from Copilot. Add the Delay action to pause the process for a certain amount of time (e.g., 5 seconds). After the delay, use the Post a message action or whatever step you need to do to send the next message to the user.
     
    Thanks.
