# Delay (parameter)

Available inside every action, the `Delay` parameter adds a delay for the action to happen **after** the conditions have been met (the interaction will be triggered but the action will wait until the delay is finished).

*Example: an interaction is set with a 'Touch' condition on a button and an 'Audio' action with 2 seconds delay to play a sound. When the user touches the button, the audio action waits 2 seconds before playing the sound.*
