Using something like https://camunda.com [0], you can execute a business process model. Such a model can include sending emails, waiting for responses, human action, custom API requests, etc.

Camunda is not no-code, but it comes close to what you imagine. I suspect that when the existing API landscape of a company needs to be used for workflows, coding/integration is inevitable.

There's also (truly) no-code platforms like https://bryter.com
