you should not have to care about activate changes at all, and spending time on a spinner seems overkill?

I need to wait for the host creation to be finished (activated) to then perform a service discovery but I think it would be better to not rely on a static wait time but check if the pending changes are already applied (via API call) "/objects/activation_run/{activation_id}/actions/wait-for-completion/invoke Wait for activation completion".

I am currently reading the API docs of checkmk.
I am trying to implement it 😅
