Approval Workflows

List approval workflows

GET/approval-workflows

Lists the five workflow types an organisation can define approval steps for, ordered by type: client_invite, incoming_connect, internal_provider_publish, internal_publish and provider_approval. Each says whether the organisation has its own steps (custom) and, if so, shows the step tree. Changes nothing. Use GET /approval-workflows/{id} for one.
