approve trigger action

Overview

One or more trigger actions can be set for a named event in the workflow.

When the workflow trigger event occurs the trigger will check that any required conditions are met, and if met the "approve" action approves a named approval.

"approve"

The trigger action "approve"causes an approved decision to occur for a named approval if the provided parameters are valid.

• action (approve) 

• approval (string) Name of the Approval to be approved. If not specified, default approval^† will be used

• user (string) Atlassian userID of the approver

^{❗️ no mandatory parameter - only the} "approve" ^{action is required. If no named} approval ^{is added, the action uses the default approval in the workflow.}

^{† If no approval is specified in the trigger action, the default approval is the approval in the state named in the trigger event condition. If there are multiple approvals in the state, the default approval is the first approval listed in the JSON markup.}

 If adding the JSON trigger using workflow builder there is no need to include the opening "triggers": JSON markup notation, since it will be added by workflow builder.
