Click More Details to view the requested Permissions and Resources in the full request message on the Messages tab.
Click Reject. The Rejection Reason popup window appears.
Enter a reason for the rejection. The rejection reason must be less than 124 characters.

Click Submit. The requester will receive a notification in Slack that includes the rejection reason.
Approve a request
If a pending request is blocked because the assigned approver is unavailable, an Admin can force approve the request from the Activity page in the Web Portal.
Force approval bypasses the configured approval flow and is recorded in the request timeline.
