Is there a way to cancel a "Delayed" action in a Pipedrive automation?

I have an automation with an action that is delayed a few days after it's trigger happens. The action is the sending of an email from a template.

I would like to cancel the sending of the email between the trigger event and the end of the delay.

Is there a way to do that?

    Hello @barkbustersad,

    Using a condition right after the delay and before the action would be the best option here. See an example here:

    In this case, I have created a dedicated custom field for Leads, in which if I fill in a value, it will prevent that lead from continuing the automation after the delay.

    You do not necessarily need a custom field, but you can use conditions like labels, and if it is for a deal, then the status, stage, pipeline information, etc, for the condition after the delay to prevent it from continuing.
