accessing the approval link

[quinyx-max]

hi this is a ux issue i think going to the yaml file and clicking on the approval link for a big environment with multiple deploys per day or dozens of deploys per release day is very impractical.

• my first suggestion is to have the button to approve/reject right in the pipeline run panel under the approval stage itself
• if that is not possible, having the button in the approval tasks panel
• if all not possible, have the link clickable somewhere in the approval task row

also having the decision result emitted to the stage itself and changing its color could be a nice to have

thanks for feedback and this is quite common request and while I would like this to progress it is outside of the responsibility of this project and is more about Tekton dashboard. There is an issue open to get this improved and I already shared my view on how this could help approvals. See here https://github.com/tektoncd/dashboard/issues/1970

feel free to comment there too, the more people request this to be improved the better.

With that, I am afraid I won't be able to make anything better on this project level.

As a way to improve the situation, you can use notification channels - email, slack or ms teams to send direct link to the approval task.
