Hello,  
I have certain workflows that needs to be triggered only between 9am and 9pm.  
Is there any way to set conditions or settings to these specific workflows ?  
Thanks,

Chris

Hi @ChrisChiha,

Generally, there isn’t any option for limiting **enrollment** to certain times, only for pausing workflow **actions** , in the Settings tab of the workflow (which you’re probably aware of).

If these options don’t work in your scenario, could you describe your use case?

Best regards!

Hello Karsten,

By pausing you mean deals/contacts will still be enrolled, but the actions will be queued for next day for example ?

Hi @ChrisChiha,

That is correct. Enrollment (and delays) would still execute but any other actions would be paused until the next working hours.

Or in other words: If you have, for example, a workflow that sends marketing emails, then those emails would only be sent during the working hours of the workflow.

Best regards!

Hi @ChrisChiha ,  
In the settings tab of the workflow, you can set the when you want your actions to execute. Check out this loom video [here](https://www.loom.com/share/ab7ba4092baf4805a9db1bca0dd08911).  
Also check out this article to [here](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/workflows/manage-your-workflow-settings) to learn more about workflow settings.  
Hope this helps!
