# Approvals

> When Balt asks for your go-ahead, and how to answer.

Balt reads freely. Before writing or deleting something in a tool, he asks for your go-ahead, unless you let him do it alone.

## Where the question arrives

| Situation | Where |
| - | - |
| In a conversation | In the same conversation |
| For a routine | In the conversation the routine answers in, if you are in it. Otherwise in the console, with an email. |

## Answer

Choose **Approve** or **Deny**. In the console, the **Question from Balt** page lets you edit the action before you answer.

Unanswered within 72 hours, Balt doesn't take the action.

## Stop being asked

| For | How |
| - | - |
| An action in a tool | Under **Integrations**, the account's **Access** tab, set the action to **Automatic**: for the whole organization on an organization account (administrators), or for one person. See [What Balt does alone](https://docs.hire-balt.com/en/integrations/actions.md). |
| A routine | Approve the action in a conversation with Balt: it's added to **Allowed without asking** on the routine's page. |

**Ask again**, on the routine's page, has Balt ask before doing the action again.
