# Admin Approve Publisher Application

`POST /v1/admin/publisher-applications/{application_id}/approve`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.storyflo.com` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.storyflo.com/v1/admin/publisher-applications/{application_id}/approve`
- Auth: none declared

Operator approves a pending application. Internally calls the
opt-in helper (sets opt_in_at, mints hex_code, persists payout
fields) then marks the application status=approved and emails the
applicant their welcome packet (hex + embed snippet + dashboard
link). Idempotent — re-approving an approved application returns
the existing publisher row without re-sending the welcome email.

Auth: admin token (X-Storyflo-Email-Token).
