What the official source reports
The August documentation roundup includes a human-approval guide for long-running agents, marked as preview.
What this means for your operation
Our view: a process lasting hours may need to wait for a decision, preserve context and resume. Workflow design should identify who approves, what they see and what happens if nobody responds. Human involvement helps only when the decision is understandable and has a defined consequence.
Next step for evaluation
Choose a consequential action, such as changing an order, and specify the minimum approval information. Test rejection, expiration and resumption before the happy path. Confirm provider preview restrictions and environment region. This news does not mean that this particular implementation is already incorporated into Zild Flow.
