Outborn Agent Platform · Step-by-step guide

Approvals and audit

Understand pending actions, decisions, and the activity trail across agents and connected systems.

Before you begin

  • Have an authorized reviewer and a pending proposal in the correct organization.

Follow the workflow

  1. 01

    Open the proposal

    Read the requested action, target, inputs, initiating agent, and expected impact.

  2. 02

    Make the decision

    Approve or reject in the configured approval surface; a message in chat is not a substitute.

  3. 03

    Confirm the outcome

    Inspect execution and audit history to distinguish a recorded approval from an action that completed successfully.

Expected result

The decision and actual execution outcome can be traced to the authorized workflow.

If it does not work

Check reviewer role, policy, proposal state, connection health, and execution history.

Applied guidance

Best practices for approvals and audit

Recommended

  • Check target, inputs, expected impact, and requester before deciding.
  • Verify the execution result after approval and retain the decision trail.

Avoid

  • Do not assume an approval recorded in chat satisfies the configured proposal workflow.

01

Review a pending action

Open the approval request and inspect its source, target, inputs, and proposed effect. Approval policies and authorized reviewers determine whether the action can continue.

02

Record a decision

Approve or reject only after checking the proposal. A chat message saying an action is approved does not itself replace the configured approval flow.

03

Inspect activity

Use product audit and execution history to understand requests, tool activity, outcomes, and approval decisions. Optional exports may be configured for operations teams.
