Approval Queue

Slack Approval Queue

Decisions waiting for approval. Re-request, snooze, and keep operations moving.

What is the Approval Queue?

The Approval Queue shows all decision traces awaiting approval in Slack. It's your central hub for managing pending exceptions and keeping the team aligned.

  • View all pending approvals in one place
  • Bulk select and re-request stale items
  • Snooze items temporarily to reduce noise
  • Auto-reminders post as a digest to avoid channel spam

Key Actions

Re-request Approval

Send selected approvals back to Slack. We rate-limit at 15/min to avoid Slack spam.

Snooze

Hide this approval temporarily. Snoozed items won't appear in the queue until they return.

Un-snooze

Bring snoozed items back to the active queue before their scheduled return time.

Filter & Sort

Filter by type, severity, or age. Sort by oldest first to tackle the backlog.

Bulk Actions

Select multiple items using the checkboxes, then use the bulk action bar:

Select All / None

Quickly toggle selection for all visible items

Re-request Selected

Posts are sent at 15/min to respect Slack rate limits

Snooze Selected

Hide items for 24h, 3d, or 7d

Auto-Reminders

Digest-Style Reminders

Auto-reminders consolidate all pending approvals for a workspace into a single digest message. This avoids channel noise while keeping the team aware of outstanding decisions.

Reminder Schedule: Configurable via Slack Settings. Reminders only fire if there are pending, non-snoozed items.
