Triggering scenario in the middle upon users approval

How To
,
1

Hello community, is there any module that enables triggering or continuing of the workflow based on user’s approval?

For example (in my web app):

  1. Frontend sends the user’s payload to my Make.com webhook

  2. Workflow processes the user’s prompt and in the middle of the workflow asks to confirm whether the user wants to proceed or not (sends the response to my front end or back end)

  3. Then, if the user on the front end confirms yes, then the Make.com workflow continues. If the user rejects then the workflow doesn’t continue

    So, how can I trigger Make scenario to continue in the middle of the scenario only upon user’s trigger/approval

I hope it’s not confusing what I am trying to explain here

I tried Sleep module but sleep module just waits and executes automatically when the time is up

Hey @Damir , I understand what you mean. That process is called “HUMAN IN THE LOOP“.
Well, when it comes to setting up that functionality, make does not have a functionality that does that but there’s an n8n node that does that.
However, It’s still quite possible to create a similar functionality in make.

You’ll need two scenarios. The second handles the “callback” from the approval request.

Thank you for your response. Can you please explain what you said a little bit more: You’ll need two scenarios. The second handles the “callback” from the approval request.

The trick is how to transfer the output from the scenario 1 to the callback scenario.

I know it’s possible in n8n but I would rather stay on Make instead of switching. But maybe I will switch to n8n because n8n is so much flexible

Yeah. You can try both options and see which one works best for you.
