The Go Async step allows subsequent Flow steps to run asynchronously on a different thread, returning control immediately to the Flow's calling entity (such as a Parent Flow, user, or process). This can be useful for managing steps that are expected to take a long time and produce outputs that aren't required by the calling entity. Another useful application of this component is error handling. Suppose a non-critical error is thrown within a Flow (for example, sending a non-critical email). The Flow could initiate an error handling process using the Go Async step and resume the main process.
