When Approval Management Meets Real-Time Feedback
Modern businesses face two critical challenges: making decisions quickly and keeping stakeholders engaged. ApproveThis solves the first problem by automating approval workflows across departments. MeetingPulse tackles the second with live polling, Q&A, and ideation tools for meetings. Together, they create a closed-loop system where audience feedback directly fuels organized decision-making.
Why This Integration Matters
Most companies use surveys or live polls to gather input, then waste days chasing approvals via email chains. The ApproveThis-MeetingPulse integration through Zapier fixes this disconnect. When a participant submits a poll response or question in MeetingPulse, ApproveThis automatically creates an approval request with all context attached. Decision-makers receive email notifications they can approve/reject in one click – no app switching required.
Key Business Benefits
Marketing teams can approve campaign ideas surfaced during brainstorming sessions within hours instead of days. HR departments turn employee sentiment data from all-hands meetings into actionable policy changes with traceable approvals. Event planners validate session topics voted on by attendees before finalizing agendas.
Real-World Use Cases
1. From Live Polls to Approved Actions
A healthcare provider uses MeetingPulse to survey staff about equipment needs during quarterly meetings. When nurses vote for specific tools, ApproveThis:
- Routes requests to department heads based on cost thresholds
- Automatically escalates urgent PPE requests to C-suite
- Updates inventory systems upon approval via Zapier
2. Moderated Q&A at Scale
Tech companies hosting product AMAs (Ask Me Anything) with MeetingPulse can automatically send engineering-related questions to dev leads for approval before sharing responses. ApproveThis ensures only vetted answers get published, while sales teams instantly approve customer feature requests to trigger CRM follow-ups.
Setup Made Simple
Connect the tools in 15 minutes using Zapier:
- Create a Zapier account (if needed)
- Choose "MeetingPulse" as trigger app
- Select either "New Survey Answer" or "New Topic Submission"
- Connect ApproveThis as action app
- Map MeetingPulse response data to ApproveThis request fields
No coding required. Test with free tiers before scaling.
Team-Specific Advantages
For Executives
Get visibility into which meeting-generated ideas get approved/rejected across departments. Use ApproveThis dashboards to spot bottlenecks in capital request approvals stemming from town hall feedback.
For Operations Managers
Set conditional rules in ApproveThis to auto-approve recurring meeting action items below certain effort thresholds. Example: If 70% of workshop participants vote "Yes" to a process change costing under $500, implement it without manual review.
For External Collaborators
Clients or contractors can approve MeetingPulse-driven requests via email without needing access to your internal systems. ApproveThis sends branded approval emails showing embedded poll results or survey data for context.
Advanced Features That Matter
While basic integrations handle simple approvals, these features help complex organizations:
Calculated Fields
Automatically flag high-priority requests using MeetingPulse metadata. Example: If a product idea submitted during a sprint planning meeting receives votes from 50%+ attendees, ApproveThis can calculate an "Urgency Score" to prioritize engineering reviews.
Approval Groups
Route budget-related poll results from department meetings to both finance and team leads. Require sequential approvals where finance must greenlight requests before operational teams can proceed.
Common Pitfalls Avoided
Unlike manual processes, this integration prevents:
- Lost context: All MeetingPulse submission details attach automatically to approval requests
- Version chaos: Edits to original poll responses sync bidirectionally via Zapier
- Compliance gaps: Full audit trails show who approved what based on which meeting data

Final Tip
Start small – automate approvals for one meeting type (e.g., marketing campaign brainstorming), then expand. Most teams see 40% faster decision cycles within 90 days. The best part? Approvers never need to learn new tools – they can keep using email or existing systems.
