Pause an automation

There are several reasons to pause an automation: to interact with the page (for example to enter a password), to give a slow-loading page time to render, or to vary timing to look more human. Note that you can only interact with the browser when running on the desktop, not in the cloud.

Use the Wait step

To pause an automation, open the step finder, search for wait, and add the Wait step.

1. Set Wait type to Fixed length for a specific duration, or Random length to vary it.

The automation pauses when it reaches the Wait step, not before.
