POSThttps://api.norreach.app/v1/approvals/{key}/approve

Says yes as the key's creator — it goes out (or goes live) through the same checks as the Approvals page: the outreach pause, the creator's role, the item re-read in this workspace. Optional edits change the words (or a meeting's time, length, email or host) as it is approved. An ad launch also needs ads:spend, a landing page pages:publish, a plan card plans:approve. Already decided → 409 already_decided; a claim that needs checking → 409 conflict (decide it in the app). dry_run=true checks it still waits and changes nothing.
