Approvals
Review and act on workflow steps that require human sign-off before execution continues
When a workflow contains an Approval node, execution pauses at that node and waits for a human decision before proceeding. The Approvals page lists every pending request across all workflows you have access to.
How Approvals Work
A workflow run reaches an Approval node and halts. The responsible person sees the request on the Approvals page, reviews the context, and either approves or rejects it. The run then continues (on approval) or ends with a rejected status (on rejection).
Reviewing a Request
Each entry in the list shows the workflow name, when the request was created, and its current status. Click an entry to open the detail panel, which displays:
- Workflow: the name and description of the workflow that triggered the request
- Context message: any message the workflow author configured to guide the reviewer
- Pending inputs: the data that will be passed to the next node if approved, shown formatted or as raw JSON
Making a Decision
In the detail panel, click Approve or Reject.
Decisions are final. Once you approve or reject a request, the workflow run advances and cannot be undone from this page.
Filtering by Workflow
When navigating to the Approvals page from within a specific workflow, the list is pre-filtered to show only that workflow's pending requests.
