Kobold Help

Client approvals

Send one private link. Your client sees the before and after and approves, without a Kobold account.

Client approval links are part of the Agency plan.

On a task that is waiting for approval, choose Send for client approval. Enter your client's name and email and, if you like, a short message. Pip writes a plain-language summary of the change and turns Moss's checks into client-friendly lines ("Looks right on phone and desktop", "Pages and checkout work as before").

The link looks like usekobold.com/r/oak-and-ember/…. It:

  • works without a Kobold account and doesn't use a seat,
  • expires after 7 days, and you can revoke it any time from the task,
  • is pinned to the exact version your client reviewed. If the task gets a new copy (after Adjust or a re-apply), the old link stops working and you send a new one,
  • never shows other tasks, store data or the code diff.

What your client can do

  • Approve. The task shows Client approved and you get an email. Publishing is still your call.
  • Request changes. Their note appears in the task thread, and you decide what to adjust.
  • Download an approval record, a PDF with the change, the store, the checks, who approved and when.

Privacy

Approval pages are not indexed by search engines and don't send a referrer. Decisions are single-use and recorded in the audit log with time, IP and browser.
