Can I create a ROS2 service server in Simulink?

I found the 'ros2svcserver' function in MATLAB, but couldn't find an equivalent Simulink block.

Is there any way to create a ROS service server in Simulink? (R2023a)

Currently, we are providing only Service Client block, not a Service Server block for ROS2 in Simulink.

As workarounds, you can use 'ros2svcserver' in MATLAB, or implement similar behavior by using ROS publisher/subscriber and its 'isNew' port.
