I have a flow where I have a wait, but the next action in the flow starts 4 minutes later. Why is this happening?"

Resolved case: The problem was in the node, linked to the action when waiting for 2 seconds. Before starting the next action in parallel, it triggered another flow/action that took more time to complete. Since the same user was triggering all the flows, it created this idle time.

Therefore, it is recommended, based on the business need, to validate if there are multiple users who can trigger the flows or just one.

Thank you all very much.

@Francisco Angul Are you having this wait timer in loop? If yes then the timer action will make the flow wait for 2 seconds for each loop iteration. You can multiply the two seconds with the number of times the loop is executing with a delay of 2 seconds.
