Client approval: per-item approve, request changes, comment
Turn a read-only share into a review round — the client marks each item approved or needs changes and comments in place, and you see the verdicts on the run.

Review by email loses track of which comment was about which image. Switch approvals on for a share and the feedback lives on the item it is about.
Turning it on
In the Share dialog, opt in to approvals (and comments) for that share. It is per share and off by default — an ordinary share stays strictly read-only.
What the reviewer does
- Approve or Request changes on each item.
- Comment in place, on a specific item.
- Guests name themselves; a reviewer who is signed in to FlowArray is shown as verified, so you can tell a known colleague's verdict from an anonymous one.
No account, no install, nothing to learn.
What you see
On the run's page in Runs: each item's verdict and its comments, alongside the output. You also get a notification — "N new comments on your share" — deduplicated so a busy review round is one nudge, not forty. You can delete a comment (moderation), and revoking the share ends the round.
The honest security picture
This makes a page on a public URL writable, which is a real change in posture, so it is built accordingly:
- Opt-in per share, and least-privilege: a reviewer can add a verdict and a comment on that share's items. Nothing else — no editing, no running, no other run, never your keys.
- Rate-limited and capped, so a public form cannot be used to flood your workspace.
- Everything a guest types is escaped where it is displayed — a comment is data, never markup and never an instruction.
- You can delete any comment and revoke the share at any time.
Still, treat an approvals-enabled link like any semi-public URL: send it to the people who need it, set an expiry, and revoke it when the round is done.
Fitting it into a workflow
The usual loop: run the batch → share it with approvals on → the client approves most and asks for changes on three → you regenerate only those → share the new run. If the judgement is mechanical rather than human ("score under 80"), the Repeat card can do that revision inside the flow before a human ever looks.
