My team recently put in automation so that we use CircleCI for the staging deployment, have it wait for manual approval, then deploy to production. However, we can also give the Slack staging deployment message a +1 reaction, which will automatically approve the production deployment for CircleCI. This way, we get an easy dev UX but all the CI features of CircleCI.

How does that work? A Slack staging deployment channel "+1" message sends an outgoing webhook to CircleCI?
