Approvals in custom workflow

Mark Charles

Greetings,

I've seen multiple versions of posts, some very old, and am unclear on whether I can use workflow approvals in a custom project workflow.  I'm using the Jira cloud version and my project type is: Business Project.  When I edit my workflow status boxes, I don't see the option to specify approvers.  

Some posts mention that the only project types that can use workflow approvals are Jira Service Desk.  Can anyone clarify?

Thanks
Mark

Hi! @Mark Charles !

out-of-box just Jira Service Desk projects have workflow approvals(here the article Setting up approvals).

you can use different plugins to do it in Business project, for example, Herzum Approval(Server).
