How to approve or reject a request

Updated 2026-10-16

This lives under My. You do not create an approval here. A workflow on another record (an OKR, a deal, a secret request) sends one to you. Who can approve is set on the model. See Permissions and Workflows.

A badge on My usually means someone is waiting on you. The My tour opens Pending, then Requests.

How to decide on something waiting on you

  1. Open My. Click Approvals, or follow the badge on My.
  2. Stay on Pending. That list is waiting on you.
  3. Open the row. Read what was asked.
  4. Approve or reject. Leave a comment if the form asks for one.
  5. Save. The person who submitted it sees the result under Requests.

Example: a teammate asks for the shared Slack login. You see it under Pending, approve it, and they can open the password. See Secrets.

How to check something you submitted

  1. Open Approvals → Requests.
  2. Find the row. It shows whether it is still waiting, approved, or rejected.
  3. You do not approve your own request here. Wait for the assigned person.
