# Approved apps

Once an app is approved by Make, the code is locked and it starts to be versioned. When a new change is made in the code of the app, it automatically creates Diff files, which contain detailed information about the changes.

Every change made to the app is visible only to you unless we commit it. You can safely add and test new functions and when they are stable, you must follow our guidelines to have the changes checked and released to users.

You should always make sure the [changes will not break](/custom-apps-documentation/app-maintenance/updating-your-app/approved-apps/managing-breaking-changes.md) existing scenarios.

{% hint style="info" %}
The changes you make will become available only after triggering your scenario in your web browser. This can be done by clicking the **Run once** button, or by selecting the **Run this module only** option after right-clicking on a module with your mouse.

To make the changes available to all users in Make, you must request [approval of the changes](/custom-apps-documentation/app-maintenance/updating-your-app/approved-apps/approval-of-changes-in-approved-app.md). Once approved, the changes will be available to all users. Additionally, you will have the ability to schedule your scenario with the updated modules that were previously run in "run-once" mode.
{% endhint %}

We recommend you create a new version of the app when there are major changes in the current API and/or there is a new API version available and it is not possible to update the current app without breaking changes.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://developers.make.com/custom-apps-documentation/app-maintenance/updating-your-app/approved-apps.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
