Typlog Integration

ApproveThis manages your Typlog Integration approvals.

April 17, 2025

Integration Category: Cms

Let’s be real: getting content approved feels like herding cats. Between chasing down stakeholders and digging through email threads, most teams waste hours on process instead of creating. That’s why pairing Typlog’s simple publishing tools with ApproveThis’ approval automation isn’t just convenient – it’s a straight-up productivity hack for teams tired of playing corporate telephone.

Why This Combo Works Like a Double Shot of Espresso

Typlog makes publishing easy. ApproveThis makes deciding what to publish easier. Together through Zapier, they handle the grunt work so your team can focus on actual work. Think of it like autopilot for content ops: draft goes live the second it’s approved, comments get reviewed without opening 12 tabs, and nobody has to play “guess who forgot to sign off.”

Bonus perk: approvers don’t need Typlog accounts. Perfect for agencies client approvals or cross-company collabs where you don’t want to manage 50 extra licenses.

Actual Use Cases for Actual Humans

We’re not here to sell you vaporware. These are real workflows teams use daily:

1. Moderating Comments Without Losing Your Mind

The problem: Your blog’s blowing up (good!), but now every new comment needs legal review (bad).
The fix: Auto-send Typlog comments to ApproveThis. Legal team approves/denies via email. Clean feed, zero micromanagement.

Who uses this: Healthcare companies filtering PHI mentions, media sites avoiding libel claims.

2. Publishing Podcasts Without 7 Approval Meetings

The problem: Your podcast episode is ready, but marketing needs to approve the title, legal needs to vet the script, and the CEO insists on hearing the intro.
The fix: Approved episode drafts in ApproveThis auto-publish to Typlog. No more “version_final_FINAL(3).mp3” email chains.

Who uses this: Public companies with compliance teams, agencies producing white-label content.

3. Scaling Newsletter Signups Without Chaos

The problem: New subscribers need vetting for GDPR/CCPA compliance, but your intern’s drowning in spreadsheets.
The fix: Typlog subscriber alerts trigger ApproveThis checks. Legal gets digest emails, clicks approve. No spreadsheets, no violations.

Who uses this: EU-based companies, anyone with strict data privacy policies.

Setting This Up Without an IT Degree

If you can order DoorDash, you can connect these apps:

  1. Grab your Typlog account (they’ve got a free tier)
  2. Sign up for ApproveThis (14-day trial, no CC required)
  3. Create a Zapier account – it’s the glue here

From Zapier, pick your trigger (“New Typlog comment”) and action (“Create ApproveThis request”). Test with a real comment. Boom – next time someone posts “Buy Bitcoin!!!”, your compliance lead gets an email to reject it without leaving Gmail.

Why Different Teams Will Actually Like This

Marketing: Launch campaigns faster by auto-publishing approved drafts. No more “Where are we on the Q2 blog roadmap?” status meetings.

Legal/Compliance: Review content in their inbox, not some clunky portal. Set dollar thresholds – auto-approve small stuff, escalate big claims.

Content Teams: See approval status in real time. Know exactly why something was rejected (no more “Pls fix” vagueness).

External Partners: Clients approve drafts via email without getting Typlog logins. No more “I forgot my password” support tickets.

ApproveThis Features You’ll Wish You Had Sooner

This isn’t just about sending emails back and forth:

  • Approval Escalation: Stuck waiting on Karen from legal? Requests auto-reassign if she’s OOO.
  • Dynamic Rules: Auto-approve posts under $1k budget, escalate anything mentioning competitors.
  • Audit Trails: When compliance asks “Who approved this typo-ridden headline?”, you have receipts.

The Bottom Line (No Corporate Jargon Edition)

If your team spends more time talking about content than creating it, this integration cuts the BS. It’s not about replacing human judgment – it’s about eliminating the busywork so people can actually think.

ApproveThis + Typlog via Zapier works because:

  • Approvals happen where people already work (email, Slack)
  • No new logins for occasional approvers
  • You automate the boring parts, not the actual decision-making

Ready to Stop Chasing Approvals?

If you’re still manually forwarding Google Docs for sign-off, we need to talk. Start a free ApproveThis trial or book a 10-minute demo to see how real teams handle 200+ approvals weekly without losing their souls.

P.S. If you’re the “But our process is special” type – we’ve heard it. Custom workflows handle 98% of “unique” cases. The other 2%? Probably shouldn’t be automated anyway.
