# Review, Edit & Approve

You can review, edit, and approve form submissions directly from your Results tab in the Feathery dashboard. This allows an authorized reviewer to greenlight a submission before further actions are taken, such as triggering emails, integrations, other forms, and more.

## Set up the approval field

The first step to build an approval flow is to set your approval field. This can be an actual field on your form, like a dropdown, or it can be a hidden field that only your internal Feathery teammates can control. Use a form field if you want the approval status to be modifiable from the form itself. Otherwise, use a hidden field.

#### Status Options

If you choose to use a form field like a dropdown, you'll be able to set the status options via the Designer. If you choose to use a hidden field, you can set options for the hidden field by navigating to your results, into a submission that has the hidden field, right click the overflow icon next to the hidden field value, and select **Field Options**.

## Approval workflow example

Your approval workflow might look something like this:

1. The form filler submits an entry for review.
2. The [email integration](https://feathery.io/integrations/email) is set up to notify your team when the form is completed and ready for review.
3. You or a teammate opens up their submission in Feathery and reviewers their information. If the submission is invalid, you set their approval field status to **Rejected**. If the submission is valid, set the status to **Approved**.
4. You have other integrations, such as email or Hubspot, set up so that when the approval field status is set to **Approved**, additional notifications go out and their approved submission data is routed to the right locations.
