Hi everyone,

I’m Megan Legge, a product manager for HubSpot’s workflows tool. Thanks for the comments and feedback!

This request is similar to another feature, which is currently in planning. That feature is to add a delay to a workflow that waits until something happens, for example, delay until a contact submits a form or views a page.

[https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/Hold-pause-an-object-in-a-workflow-delay-until-a-condition-is/idi-p/270796/page/2#comments](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/Hold-pause-an-object-in-a-workflow-delay-until-a-condition-is/idi-p/270796/page/2#comments)

As that feature develops, we’re exploring additional capabilities, and one of those is the ability to use this type of delay to wait until a task’s status has changed. As more information about this feature becomes available, we’ll update here with more information.

Thank you!

Megan
