Can you delay an event order in Shopify to prevent tag overwriting?

My question is how you can put a certain delay on the event order. So that after placing an order, the event for the order will work after a while.

The problem is that when the shopify flow event is processed, it adds a tag to the client, and at the same time, another app receives a webhook and adds a tag, because of this, the tags are overwritten.

I would like the shopify flow to work with a delay, is there any solution here? Nobody faced such a problem?

This is an accepted solution.

Adding a delay as part of a workflow isn't currently available in Flow. It's a feature we hope to add in an upcoming release of the app.

More than two years on - I can't see that this has been implemented yet
