2. Search for “Approval”: Type “Approval” in the search bar to see the available approval-related actions.

3. Choose the Desired Task: Select the approval function that fits your workflow requirements.

Tasks You Can Perform with Approval

• Wait for Approval: Pauses the workflow and waits for a user to approve or reject a request before proceeding.

• Create Approval Links: Generates approval links that can be shared externally without pausing the flow, allowing for asynchronous decision-making.
