Approval Workflows

In this Article
Route forms through multiple participants and collect approvals within a single workflow.

Approval Workflows allow you to collect information, gather approvals, and route submissions between multiple participants without leaving a single page.

Approval Workflows are powered by Sections. Each Section represents a step in the process and can be assigned to a different participant. Participants only see and complete the section assigned to them, keeping the workflow organized and easy to manage.

Common use cases include:

  • Prom & Homecoming Guest Approvals
  • Permission Slips & Liability Forms
  • District Forms
  • Expense Reimbursements
  • Incident & Safety Reports
  • Transcript & Records Requests

Configure the Next Submitter

Use the send to setting within a Section to determine who should receive the next part of the workflow.

You can route a section to:

  • The original submitter
  • A specific email address
  • An email collected from an Email block in a previous section

Each section can be routed to a different submitter, allowing forms to move seamlessly through review and approval processes.


Add an Approval Step

Use the Approval Block when a submission requires review before moving forward.

When a submitter approves the request, the workflow continues to the next section. For example, you may collect payment only after approval has been granted.

If the request is rejected, the workflow ends and no additional sections are sent.


Email Delivery Issues

If an email cannot be delivered, you'll see a failed icon in the Activity tab. Update the email address and resend the section directly from the submission.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
