Set timer duration from an execution variable

Is it possible to set timer duration from an execution variable?

Is there any other ways to externally set a timer rather than configuring in the timer defintion.

Thanks and Regards,

You can have a timer which is initialized by a variable i the context:

@Niall

when i try to declare the timer definition with some variable as mentioned above, am getting the below error.
Cannot instantiate process definition. Timer ‘Timer1’ was not configured with a valid duration/time, either hand in a java.util.Date or a String in format 'yyyy-MM-dd’T’hh:mm:ss’

Try something like let timerDefinition = new Date().toISOString().replace(/Z$/, "UTC+00:00"); ( js implementation ), Also this is the doc you might be looking for https://docs.camunda.org/manual/7.9/reference/bpmn20/events/timer-events/
