What it solves

Approvals often vanish into chat. This workflow creates a structured request, captures the response, and logs the outcome.

Core workflow

Receive request data, post a Slack message, capture response, update a sheet or database, and notify the requester.

Risk notes

A good template should define timeout behavior and escalation rules before it is trusted for finance or customer-impacting actions.
