Authorizing Multiple Diagrams

Once a diagram is ready to be authorized, a request for authorization will notify the assigned authorizers and a notification will appear in their To-Do list.

Rejecting a diagram will email the author, who will then decide whether to cancel the authorization request or agree on a resolution with the authorizer. A diagram cannot be promoted until it has been authorized by all assigned authorizers.

If you are already familiar with the content associated with particular authorization requests, you can authorize or reject multiple items in one go.
