Automation Workflow Time setting
Hi,
I am looking at the feature creating Workflow. I'm wondering is there any way that we could set the time trigger by minute? For now, we can only set up on the hour, however, is it possible to customized the setting by minute, like 2:30pm, 2:45pm? I am asking because when I test the workflow, I can only wait for another hour to check the result. Any one has a alternative way to do the test?
Thank you!

Good evening, You can't set automation to send at a time that's not in the selection list. To test your automation, I recommend you change the trigger to another action that you can cause at will, like changing a column value and send immediately. The time trigger is very reliable. Once you know the rest of your workflow performs as expected you can rest the trigger to launch at a specific time and day.
