Send work for approval

Before you start

• Permission to start approvals in the selected project.
• Completed, eligible Studio outputs in that project.
• A reviewer’s email, a connected Slack workspace, or a published review workflow.

Start an approval request

1. 01

   Choose Run approval

   Open Approvals in the correct project and choose Run approval. If the action is unavailable, check product access and your project permissions.
2. 02

   Choose the assets

   Use Add from Studio to select the outputs. Check the thumbnails and versions, then choose Done selecting.
3. 03

   Choose a reviewer

   Enter a reviewer’s email, choose a Slack reviewer, or select Saved workflow for an existing review process.
4. 04

   Set the deadline

   Check the review title and deadline. If you use a saved workflow, also check its reviewers and delivery settings.
5. 05

   Run approval

   Check the assets and recipient, then choose Run approval. This sends the review link; the reviewer does not need a Mica account.

Track the request

Overview summarizes attention items, recent requests, and deadlines. Requests is the searchable history with status filters. Inbox shows work requiring the signed-in reviewer’s attention.

Open a request to inspect stage progress, decisions, feedback, and the submitted creative. These views follow the selected project; switching projects changes the requests you see.

Understand shared review links

New reviews use shared request links. Anyone holding a valid link can view that request and submit an allowed decision after entering a name and email; they do not need a Mica account. These identities are recorded as self-reported.

Keep revisions explicit

A review is bound to the submitted versions. Generating another variant or changing the primary output does not silently change what reviewers see. When changes are requested, prepare the revision and use the request’s replacement or resubmission controls, then check the version shown in the review.
