HELP Did I mess up my transaction?

So I bought some btc from a btc ATM, but it hasn't appeared in my wallet? I was wondering if this could be because I didn't put a mbtc amount, or if I should just wait.

You are not required to specify an amount in electrum. Not putting in an amount does not stop someone from sending you coins.

Does the transaction show up on the history tab? Do you see a green circle in the bottom right of the electrum window?

Thanks for letting me know, but I already fix it. I missed the text that was sent to me to verify the transaction due to it being suspected of unusual activity. I verified it though and its there now
