Review an action before it runs
When an action needs your approval, the thread shows an approval card before it runs. You decide how long your choice applies:Once
Allow this single call. The next time the same tool is needed, you are asked again.
This thread
Allow the tool for the rest of this thread, without re-asking each time inside it.
Always
Allow the tool going forward, so future threads do not stop for it.
Some tools also require admin approval
Some tools also require a workspace administrator to approve the action. Your approval and the administrator’s approval are separate decisions, and both must be complete before the action can run.Sidekick resumes automatically
The action remains paused while any required user approval, administrator approval, or budget request is still waiting. When every required approval is complete, Sidekick resumes the action automatically. If any required approval is denied, the action does not run.Review what happened in the thread
The thread shows what Sidekick asked to run, who approved or denied it, and the result. You can return to the thread to review those details with the surrounding conversation.Where to go next
