I have built an Azure Logic App which works fine with first requirement.

Bottom is the previous post that I asked, and I am glad that it worked out.

Now, next piece that I need to work on is connecting to Outlook to send out an email notification.

But, there is one condition. I would like to send out an email after certain delay period (like a day - 24 hours).

Is there any setting inside "Send an email" that I could configure to delay like a day?

Thanks.

    Hi @King Java ,

    as far as I know there is no delay option in the Send an email action.

    But maybe it is an option to add a Delayaction before the Send an email.

    Please take a look here: Delay running the next action in Azure Logic Apps

    You can use Delay action or Delay until action to add delay in sending your mail which will work in your case The setting that you have highlighted above is related to timeout of Send an email action which is different from Delay which you want to implement in your logic app. Hope this helps.
