Workflow Approval Endpoint

Summary​

Approval accepts an optional decision body and returns the updated instance. The exact method and route are in the endpoint catalog.

Approval API flow​

Body and validation​

The body is nullable; absence becomes a decision input with no comment. Duplicate or late approval returns conflict. Route binding enforces a GUID task identifier.

Security limitation​

No backend assignment or permission check protects the action.

Requires Confirmation​

Authorization, concurrent decisions and externally visible idempotency guarantees require confirmation.
