# send_and_wait_for_async_aci_action

Sends a query to an ACI server and does not return until the action has completed.

You might use this method when you want to use an asynchronous action. The `send_aci_action` method returns as soon as it receives a response, which for an asynchronous action means that it returns a token. The method `send_and_wait_for_async_aci_action` sends an action and then waits. It polls the server until the action is complete and then returns the response.

Argument | Description
--- | ---
`host` | (string) The ACI host to send the query to.
`port` | (number) The ACI port to send the query to.
`action` | (string) The name of the action to perform.
`parameters` | (table) A Lua table containing the action parameters, for example, { param1="value1", param2="value2" }
`timeout` | (number) The number of milliseconds to wait before timing out. The default is 60000 (1 minute).
`retries` | (number) The number of times to retry if the connection fails. The default is 3.
`sslParameters` | (table) A Lua table containing the SSL settings.

## Returns
