## Overview

The "Time Window" action block pauses the workflow until a certain point in time. The workflow will then be in a `Running` state and you will be able to cancel the execution by using the  `Stop Flow` button within the debug mode or the Logs page.

If the point in time is in the past, it will just continue executing.

### Example

Within the action you have lots of flexibility -- you're able to pause until Specific `Days`, `Dates`, `Times` while controlling the `Timezone`.

### Output

```json theme={null}
{
    "resume_at": "2023-10-28T12:13:05Z", // the point in time when the execution will resume (time format: RFC3339)
    "Formatted": "Sat, 28 Oct 2023 12:13:05 UTC", // same as `resume_at` but in a more nicely formatted way (time format: RFC1123)
}
```
