There is no set delivery date as far as I know.

If you wanna use httpAction soon, you can use following escape hatch:

new iot.TopicRule(this, "TopicRule", {
  sql: iot.IotSql.fromStringAsVer20160323("SELECT * FROM 'device/+/data'"),
  actions: [
    {
      bind: () => ({
        configuration: {
          http: {
            url: "",
          },
        },
      }),
    },
  ],
});```
