Need to build: ‘Send reminder 1hr after signup, follow-up 24hrs later if no response’. Traditional workflow tools require manual delay nodes. Tried telling Copilot ‘create 3 reminders with 1h gaps’ but got sequential instead of calendar-aligned triggers. What’s the magic phrasing to generate proper staggered delays?
Tell Copilot: ‘Create event-triggered sequence with 60min and 1440min delays after initial webhook’. Generates parallel timers with condition checks. Used this for onboarding drips - tutorial: https://latenode.com
Use time algebra in your prompt: ‘Trigger sequence where each step occurs X time after previous COMPLETION, not initial event’. Add cancellation logic for responded users. Protip: Store timestamps in user context objects for accurate scheduling across long workflows.
phrasing that worked: “schedule 3 notifications at +1h, +24h, +72h from trigger event”. copilot generated proper delay chain
