Hi All,

Update - this new action is now available to all customers using the workflows app. The new delay action allows you to create delays centered around both a calendar date (eg. an event happening on 9/15/22) or centered around a date property (for example the “close date” of a deal). This can be used in any type of workflow, including custom objects : )

Our KB doc has all the details: [Use delays in your workflows](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/workflows/use-delays#delay-until-a-date)

Best,

Megan
