- Review: Represents an active or completed review of a reviewable item such as an Entry or StageEntry. A Review tracks the overall status, the assigned reviewers (see `Reviewer`), and links back to the reviewable item. Reviews follow a configured `ReviewProcess` that defines the stages and actions required for completion. The review status progresses from submission through reviewer actions until reaching a terminal state like ACCEPTED or REJECTED.
  - `__typename` string
  - `createdAt` string, datetime: Timestamp when this review was created
  - `id` string: ID of the review
  - `reviewHistory` string, uri: Ordered list of ReviewChange records representing the full audit history of this review. Each ReviewChange captures a single action taken (e.g. send-for-review, approve, reject, retract), the timestamp it occurred, any associated comment, and an optional point-in-time snapshot. To query review history by the reviewable item's ID (e.g. an entry ID like etr_...) instead of the review ID, use GET /benchling/review-change/items?reviewableId.anyOf=<id>.
