Reject Approval API

Call the Advanced Approvals reject approval service from an outside source.

Required Editions
Available in: Advanced Approvals Spring ‘21 and later

Invoke the approval API using the following service router call, replacing class with your class name and method with your method name.

ServiceRouter?saver=AA.{class}.{method}

Use the following endpoint, replacing server with your server address.

<server>/services/apexrest/SBAA/ServiceRouter

The approval service accepts the following parameters.

Parameter	Required	Description
`approvalID`	Required	ID of the approval record in Salesforce.
`comments`	Optional	Comments about the approval.

Sample Request

Include a saver in the request body model. When you send the approval request, the CPQ service router evaluates the model and finds the saver attribute. It then takes the value of the saver attribute - in this case, Reject - and maps that to the corresponding Advanced Approvals Apex class.

Example

This example shows a basic Javscript function for calling the Reject Service API from Google Sheets.

1function reject() {
2  var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
3  var data = sheet.getDataRange().getValues();
4  // Make a POST request with a JSON payload.
5  var model = {
6	"approvalId": data[1][0],
7	"comments": data[1][1]
8  };
9  var data = {
10    'saver': 'SBAA.ApprovalRestApiProvider.Reject',
11    'model': JSON.stringify(model)
12  };
13  var header = {
14       'authorization' : 'Bearer 00Dx0000000IiSD!ARoAQAiD7e.IshlpUqRUQo3Fu6MSox3y1ToMNdEl8MqXXXXXXXXXXXX'
15  };
16  var options = {
17    'method' : 'post',
18    'contentType': 'application/json',
19    'headers': header,
20    'muteHttpExceptions': false,
21    // Convert the JavaScript object to a JSON string.
22    'payload' : JSON.stringify(data)
23  };
24  var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch('server/services/apexrest/SBAA/ServiceRouter', options);
25  var responseText = response.getContentText();
