Manager
Prompt Approvals
You need active Manager access to open Prompt Approvals. The queue shows only prompts submitted by your active direct reports, and your decision is a recommendation, not final approval.
Open the queue
Choose Prompt Approvals in the Manager navigation. A number beside it counts the prompts waiting for you, and the page itself is titled Prompt Recommendations.
Each card shows the prompt title, its category, who submitted it and when, a description, the start of the prompt text, and its tags.
- Open Prompt Approvals from the Manager navigation.
- Read the card for each prompt waiting for your recommendation.
- If the page says All caught up, no prompt from your direct reports is waiting.
Recommend a prompt
Recommend a prompt when it is clear, appropriate for your team, and ready for final content review.
- Read the description, the prompt text preview, the category, and the tags.
- Decide whether the prompt is ready to move on.
- Choose Recommend. Stride sends the prompt to final content review and removes it from your queue.
Note: A recommendation is not final approval. An authorized content reviewer still decides, and only the approved current version is visible to learners.
Ask for changes
Use Request changes when a prompt needs work before it can move on. Revision feedback is required, up to 2,000 characters, so say clearly what the author should fix.
- Write your feedback in the Revision feedback box on the prompt's card.
- Choose Request changes.
- Wait for the confirmation that the author was notified. The author edits the prompt and submits it again for your recommendation.
Tip: If Stride cannot notify the author, you still see your decision confirmed with a warning. The decision itself is saved.
Who submitted a prompt
You always see the real name of the person who submitted a prompt, even when the author chose to appear anonymous. That choice only controls how the prompt is credited to peers after it is approved. A small note on the card tells you when the author chose anonymity.
Tip: Keep the author's name within the review. Anonymity still applies to peers once the prompt is approved.
Scope and unavailable states
- Only prompts from your active direct reports appear. Organization membership alone does not put a prompt in your queue.
- If the queue cannot load, the page shows an error with Retry instead of an empty queue.
- If Stride cannot confirm a decision, it says so and reloads the queue. Check the queue before deciding again, and do not assume the first attempt was saved.
