I have read manual

All the same it do not override given timeout.
Is it a bug in Wait until Node or i'm doing smth wrong?

It make it difficult for people to help if you don't declare the full name of the node.
I just looked in the library and entered `wait` and did not see anything like `wait` and `until`.

This looks like a misunderstanding and explanation of what is wanted/expected.
It is wanting `msg.payload.timeout` and `msg.payload.timeoutUnits` from where I stand.
Though the error message says:
`{{data.timeout}}`
Try the way I suggested.
(And the full name of the node)

If you view the [8th video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDxL02SInps&list=PLyNBB9VCLmo1hyO-4fIZ08gqFcXBkHy-6&index=8) in the excellent "node-red essentials" playlist, at about the 1:10 mark, you will see where Nick hovers over the debug message and copies the path to an item.
that is essentially what you need to do to get the path to the value you are interested in

As i said it is Wait Until Node - sorry i do not know where to find the full name of it. Looks like standart Node, as for me i did not installed it, it was in package.

Well, I can't find such a node in my pallet.
So I can't help you further than this.
Open your pallet manager and find the node.
Take a screen show and post it so the full name of the node can be seen.
Here is what I see if I go to the library and search for `wait`.
None of those are this `wait until` node.

My apologies, I thought it was a different node.
Is this a home assistant node? If so, have you tried asking on the HA forum?

It must be of course unchecked!
