Human in the Loop replay limitations
Human in the Loop steps will not autoreplay if they are configured to stop running when:
- The reviewer declines the approval request (Request Approval action).
- The request times out (both Collect Data and Request Approval actions).
You can only replay these steps if you replay the entire Zap run. Reviewers will need to re-review all Human in the Loop steps.
