Response Body

actionstring,null

The exact thing being asked in one sentence ("Pay $1,250.00 to Acme Ltd from Stripe"); set for a payment, null for an ordinary approval whose title is the sentence.

approver_countinteger
approver_previewobject
countinteger
namesstring[]
automation_idstring
automation_namestring
bulk_resolve_blocked_reasonstring,null

Why a request the caller can answer on its own is kept out of a bulk decision, in words.

can_bulk_resolveboolean

May be answered in a bulk decision: can_resolve, and not a payment or a step-up gate (those are answered one at a time).

can_resolveboolean
can_view_automationboolean

The caller may open the workflow (an approver is not necessarily able to).

can_view_runboolean

The caller may open the run (use access or better on the workflow).

console_urlstring
created_atstring
current_versioninteger,null

The workflow's current published version number.

deliverynull | object

What became of the Slack and email delivery, per channel, as counts of approvers per outcome. Counts only: never an address, token or message. Null before the first delivery runs and on requests from before outcomes were recorded.

delivery_linestring,null

Who was told about this request and, when someone was not, why, in plain words ("Notified 1 of 1 · Slack, email"). Computed from delivery and the caller's own standing, so a reader who was never asked to approve is told they were not notified.

detailsobject[]
labelstring
valuestring
details_omittedinteger

Detail rows the step produced beyond the ones kept; 0 when nothing was cut.

escalate_atstring,null
escalated_atstring,null
expires_atstring
from_older_versionboolean

Pending, and its run is pinned to an older version than the workflow's current published one: approving resumes that run with its old steps. False once settled. A heads-up only; it never changes what an answer does.

gated_tierstring
idstring
is_approverboolean
messagestring
message_formatstring

How message is written. Display only: draw slack mrkdwn or a small Markdown subset as formatting, never as HTML.

Possible values:
