Issues with Slack Workflow Approval and Endless Task Execution

Alon J. also - Approve Workflow for Slack seems to never work. https://chat.lindy.ai/home/?templateId=68987a2fa8dfbd3615edb0dd https://chat.lindy.ai/visual-layer-marketing/lindy/release-notes-generator-1-68987a[…]4557a&task=6899b486357630de68f20fcc&e=6899a773457f0ac10ca25a75 And I have an endlessly running task: https://chat.lindy.ai/visual-layer-marketing/lindy/release-notes-generator-1-68987a[…]4557a&task=6899b5e82322008ff55ba34f&e=6899a773457f0ac10ca25a75

Hey Rachel -- Unfortunately the 'Approve Workflow' action isn't working at the moment 😞 I've connected with my team to get this fixed. I'll follow up with you as soon as I have an update here!

And, unfortunately the running one looks like it's due to the 'Approve Workflow' Slack issue. I connected with our partner's who help us with this action, and they mentioned that they aren't able to fix it at the moment so they'll be removing it 😞 A workaround you can do here is to Send a Slack Message -> Observe Action -> Condition that is based on the message you send back in the thread. For example you can make it 'Approve' or 'Deny', similar to the approve workflow slack action
