Two Platforms, One Powerful Connection
When low-code automation meets structured approval management, businesses gain unprecedented control over their processes. Quixy's visual workflow builder and ApproveThis' decision-making engine form a complete solution for organizations tired of manual approvals slowing down their operations. This integration isn't about replacing tools - it's about connecting two specialized systems to create workflows that think, decide, and act.
For teams using Quixy to build custom applications, adding ApproveThis through Zapier introduces governance without complexity. Approval chains become automatic extensions of your Quixy apps, maintaining the speed of no-code development while adding enterprise-grade oversight.
Why This Integration Changes the Game
Combining these platforms addresses three critical business needs:
- Speed Meets Compliance: Deploy Quixy apps faster knowing approvals are baked into the workflow
- Visibility Across Tools: Track decision timelines alongside process execution data
A manufacturing company reduced equipment purchase approval times from 14 days to 38 hours using this integration. Their Quixy-powered procurement app now automatically routes requests through ApproveThis based on cost thresholds, department budgets, and vendor qualifications.
Real-World Workflows That Deliver Results
1. Compliance-Driven Reporting
Financial institutions using Quixy for regulatory reporting automate approval chains for audit documents. When a new API report generates in Quixy:
- ApproveThis instantly receives the document through Zapier
- Risk officers get email approvals with embedded report previews
- Approved reports auto-publish to regulatory portals
This workflow helped a fintech startup maintain SOC 2 compliance while scaling from 12 to 83 employees last quarter.
2. Cross-Departmental Project Launch
Marketing teams build Quixy apps for campaign requests that now require zero manual follow-up. When a new project form submits:
- ApproveThis routes budget approvals to finance
- Legal automatically reviews compliance clauses
- Final approval triggers Quixy workflow execution
A consumer goods company using this method reduced campaign launch delays by 67% last fiscal year.
Implementation Made Simple
Connecting Quixy and ApproveThis takes under 15 minutes:
- Create Zapier account (if needed)
- Connect Quixy using OAuth credentials
- Authenticate ApproveThis
- Set trigger as "New API Report" in Quixy
- Map report data to ApproveThis request fields
Key advantage: Approvers only need ApproveThis access - no additional Quixy licenses required. This makes the solution perfect for:
- External client approvals
- Cross-company partnerships
- Regulatory bodies requiring access
Team-Specific Benefits
Finance Teams
Automate PO approvals while maintaining Quixy's budget tracking. ApproveThis' calculated fields automatically flag requests exceeding department limits, while vacation delegation ensures CFO absence doesn't stall payments.
IT Departments
Maintain control over shadow IT by adding approval gates to user-created Quixy apps. All workflow changes require IT sign-off via ApproveThis before going live.
Operations Managers
Use Quixy's form builder to create inspection checklists that automatically route through ApproveThis' multi-level approvals. Real-time dashboards show approval bottlenecks across facilities.
Advanced Features Worth Exploring
While the core integration delivers immediate value, power users leverage:
Conditional Approval Paths: Route Quixy-generated requests differently based on content analysis. Marketing spend under $5K auto-approves, while larger budgets go to the CMO.
Dynamic Deadline Calculation: Make approval timelines adapt to Quixy data - urgent shipping requests get 2-hour response windows vs standard 48-hour SLAs.
Bi-Directional Sync: Approved requests in ApproveThis can trigger Quixy workflows, while Quixy data updates can modify ongoing approval processes.
Common Implementation Pitfalls
Avoid these mistakes:
Over-Engineering: Start with single-step approvals before implementing multi-department chains
Permission Misalignment: Audit Quixy user roles against ApproveThis approver groups quarterly
Notification Fatigue: Use ApproveThis' smart reminders instead of blanket email alerts
The Future of Process Automation
As Quixy continues enhancing its no-code capabilities, ApproveThis ensures governance scales alongside innovation. Together, they form an adaptive system where:
- Frontline teams build solutions quickly
- Decision-makers retain oversight
- Compliance becomes automatic
The integration particularly shines in regulated industries like healthcare and finance, where audit trails matter as much as process speed.
