HTTP action in the Power Automate is a premium action.

Here is the blog which provides a sample of using HTTP action:

I do not see much details in your post. If you need additional support from community, please post additional details of your requirement.

Have you actually tried anything? it would be really useful if you posted an actual problem or issue rather than an pretty generic question that Google/Bing can answer if you bothered to look.

Pointers: Use the HTTP action, fill in the boxes as appropriate for your API call.
Either set variables to HTTP Response Status, HTTP Response Body using the objects returned from the call, or pass these objects into the next tasks or conditions as you wish.

The HTTP action is pretty easy to use without any guide, providing you're knowledgeable of the general mechanics of the process.

If you're not or you want to experiment with calls first then I advise some background reading and using "Postman" before starting with PowerAutomate/Flow!

I see two HTTP actions - Start Script and End Script.

In both the actions, you are POSTing the data to the service.

Do you want to capture the response from your End Script HTTP action call and store it in CSV file?

The HTTP action will return objects Body, Headers, and Status
Depending on what you mean by "response" you can access these and do what you like with them
I dont use Excel much, but if you had an Excel file already set up with a table defined in it you could populate a row in the table with the Excel: Add row to Table action, passing the "Status" object from the HTTP result into one of the columns in the new table row. Example using an Excel file stored in Sharepoint...
