Notification
Additional configuration:
Number of votes required for the group step to pass (applied only in case of Approval or Consent action)
Number of group members required for the current group step to mark a step as completed successfully and move approval process to the next step (it there is a next step) or complete whole approval process successfully.Number of votes required for the group step to fail (applied only in case of Approval or Consent action)
Number of rejecting votes that are required to mark current group step as failed.
For example, if there are 2 votes required for the group step to fail, then first ‘Reject’ action won't stop progress. Step still can be completed successfully until the second ‘Reject’ action is cast.
Approval / Consent action
One or more member of selected Confluence group can vote to approve or reject. When the step is activated, then all group members will receive notification with ‘call for action’. On page view user will see accept and reject button. The decision cannot be changed. The only way to undo decision is to ‘reset’ ongoing approval path and start new one. Every Confluence page participant can start or reset approval process.
Notification action
All group members will be notified about current progress. They might be interested in knowing progress or result, but those people have no involvement in decision making. Possible use cases:
Used at the beginning of the approval process to notify team members about the new project proposal.
Used as the last step in the approval process to notify the Confluence administrators about needed changes in Confluence options.
