Question:

What happens when a pipeline is waiting for approval? Does the delegate hold a process open?

Answer:

A Manual Harness Approval would not need to go through a delegate.

If it’s checking an external system like Jira, ServiceNow, then it would be called from the delegate side, purely from an access perspective. The process would not be held open. A task would be created on a delegate checking the expected status on an interval up to a timeout value.
