# List the active approval options for offers

GET https://api.letsdeel.com/rest/ats/offer-approval-policies

Lists the approval policies or approval rules an offer can go through, whichever the organization uses. Call it before `POST /rest/ats/applications/{application_id}/offers` to choose the approval for the new offer.

**Token scopes**: `ats:read`, `worker:read`

**Beta**: this version requires the `X-Beta: true` request header and its contract may change before it is promoted to stable. It is scheduled to become stable on 2027-01-29.
