Approver Policies

This page expands on designing, creating, and maintaining approval policies that govern activation requests.

Approver Policy

Policy types

  • Auto‑approve (no human approval)
  • Single approver
  • Dual approver (two distinct approvers)
  • Multi‑approver (N approvals)

Good policy hygiene

Keep names descriptive, document intended use, select approvers with context and coverage, and configure timeouts and escalations.

Editing policies

Edits affect new requests; pending requests keep their original policy.

Edit Approver Policy modal

The Edit Approver Policy dialog lets you update the policy name and description, switch the policy type (Auto, Single, Dual, Multi), and manage the approvers list. For Dual or Multi types, ensure approvers are distinct and that the required approvals count reflects your governance requirements. Use Cancel to discard changes or Update Policy to save.

Deleting policies

You can’t delete a policy still referenced by roles. Reassign roles first.
