Wait until webhook response / HTTP response action

The recent upgrades to the wait action have been awesome, however for automations that tie in with seperate systems, the ability to wait for a webhook response before continuing with the flow would be very useful and powerful.
Current automation softwares such as N8n allow this with its "wait" node - to resume on webhook call: https://docs.n8n.io/integrations/builtin/core-nodes/n8n-nodes-base.wait#on-webhook-call
The simple setup for this would be:
Send out data via webhook / HTTP request > Wait step > wait until webhook response > when response is received (possibly with a filter such as secret code = ____) > automation resumes.
This would allow us to send data off to different systems to trigger more complex flows, and then send back the resulting data, to continue with inside of GHL

This would be super useful! I currently use this a lot in n8n. It would make my life a lot easier if a native equivalent was implemented in GHL. Although I feel like this would end up being another "Premium Action" in GHL Workflows, so costing $0.01 per execution. In n8n I get unlimited executions since it's self-hosted in my VPS

Sebastian Perez Im finding it useful in the exact same situation haha, I hope it doesnt need to be a paid service because its not super complex - just the normal webhook action that has a build in wait step that waits for a response from the location it sends the data to
This would be suuuuper useful for tying systems together, because ive been using out self hosted n8n for completing more complex operations that GHL cannot do yet
