Policy, approvals and errors
Section titled “Policy, approvals and errors”SDK function policy ID: skyvern.update_workflow_folder_v1_workflows_workflow_permanent_id_folder_put. Catalog operation: update_workflow_folder_v1_workflows__workflow_permanent_id__folder_put. Rules can name either ID; function rules distinguish managed calls and conservatively cover raw calls sharing the route. Existing grant permissions and policy rules apply. wait() returns an immediate result or waits for a required approval; it never approves the request itself. Persist the approval ID to resume after a restart.
Provider errors retain their response; JSON decoding raises ProviderAPIError for provider failures. ManagedOperationError identifies contract/input/retention errors. See error handling and provider-specific behavior. Sensitive input may be refused before approval storage. A decoding error never resubmits a write.
