Remarks

Await Key-Value will block execution of the Workflow until the Key/Value pointed to by Key is in a status other than InProgress. This technique can be used to synchronize activity with other workflows. For example, you may build a custom app that presents work items to users based on in-progress key/values. On completion, the app will set the key/value to Success or Error at which point a Workflow awaiting this change via the Await Key-Value Node will fire.
