Approvals

You can create an approval request that prevents a flag change from being applied without approval from a team member. Select up to ten members as reviewers. Reviewers receive an email notification, but anyone with sufficient permissions can review a pending approval request. A change needs at least one approval before you can apply it. To learn more, read Approvals.

Changes that conflict will fail if approved and applied, and the flag will not be updated.
