"Record A Date" automation not working

austime

I'm trying to set up a multitude of automations where, when the status of an item is clicked as "complete" it will auto-populate the date into a date column. I set up an automation for this function but when I go back into the sheet to test the function, it's not working. I previously set up a conditional format that changed the cell to yellow if the date wasn't manually filled out, but will eventually remove that function once the auto-date automation is working properly.

Here is a clip of the automation I have set up, then right below that is where you can see that the 'complete' drop-down failed to trigger the automation (the conditional format works, but the automation does not):

UPDATE: I noticed the date DID input into my sheet, but it took well over 10 minutes for it to trigger (even after a save + page refresh)….is that normal, or is there a way to make it more instant?
