Approvals & secrets

Approvals
Approvals pause a run until a human decides. Use them when publishing, fulfilment, refunds, or any step must not continue automatically.
Typical pattern:
- Trigger starts the workflow.
- Data / integration nodes prepare context.
- An approval node waits for an authorised user.
- The branch continues (or stops) based on the decision.
Secrets
Secrets store credentials outside the canvas so authors do not paste tokens into node fields. Treat them like production credentials:
- Scope secrets to the environments that need them
- Rotate when people leave or vendors change
- Prefer referencing secrets from integration nodes instead of embedding values
Signals
Some flows use signals / webhooks so external systems or operators can resume a waiting run. Keep inbound endpoints authenticated according to your application standards.
