Guides
Ways requests arrive
Focused ApproveThis guides for ways requests arrive.
External Data Endpoints
Teach a webhook workflow what the incoming data means: map the payload's keys onto the workflow's fields once, and every waiting and future payload becomes a properly filled-in request, attributed to the right requester.
Read docAutomated Actions
Give a workflow steps that run themselves: an action step sends a webhook to a URL you choose or emails a third party a view-only link to the request, with no approver votes and no waiting. Failures retry automatically and surface to the workflow's editors; requesters only ever see a neutral waiting state.
Read docPabbly Connect
Pabbly Connect turns events in 2,000+ apps — a form submission, a new order, a CRM stage change — into ApproveThis requests, and sends every decision straight back so the next step in Pabbly can run. No code.
Read docInbound Webhook Triggers
Give a workflow its own webhook endpoint. Any tool that can send a POST can start an approval, and the event's payload becomes the request.
Read docEmail-to-Workflow
Give a workflow its own email address. Anything sent to it becomes an approval request automatically, and emailed documents can be parsed so their values land on the request's fields.
Read docPublic Forms
Open a flow's form to the public — anyone with the link can submit a request without signing in, and every submission still routes through the flow's approval steps.
Read docZapier
Zapier connects ApproveThis to 5,000+ apps, so a deal closing in your CRM, a form submission, or a new order can become an approval request with no code required.
Read docREST API & Personal API Tokens
Drive ApproveThis from your own systems: create workflows, submit requests, approve or deny them, and register webhooks through an authenticated REST API.
