Wait activity actual wait time does not match the waitTimeInSeconds input

We saw this is happening: the actual execution time of the wait activity does not match the input of waitTimeInSeconds. It might be either much longer or much shorter than the actual seconds passed in. Does anyone know what might be the cause? Thank you!

    Hi @Candice Guo ,

    Thanks for your patience. Reason for the above discrepancy is as ADF code is evaluating rand expression twice - when pipeline is actually running and when wait time is reported as input. Since the expression is rand function it results in different values. Product team confirmed it as a bug and work item is created for fixing it.

    I will coordinate with the internal team to get this fixed and I will update you as soon as I have any updates.
