# Listing Approvals

Butler offers the option to pre-approve Collections for Listing per Marketplace. Approvals can also be done later on once a bid got accepted and Assets are part of your inventory before creating the Listing task.

{% hint style="info" %}
Approvals can be done on the Ethereum blockchain. For L2 chain approvals Users need to manually list the asset on OpenSea first in order to make Auto Listing tasks work.

{% hint style="info" %}
The Selected Wallet is taken from the Bidding Task config or the wallet which is currently holding selected asset on a [Listing Task](/nft-butler/task-types/listing-task.md)
{% endhint %}

## Approvals

The Approval modal is showing Estimated gas fees based on current gas price and estimated gas limits for the required approval.

With **Refresh Estimates** gas fees can be refreshed. There is also a hardcoded limit to skip listing approvals above 50 Gwei gas price.

When hitting **Approve** Butler will automatically sign and send the approval request for the selected Marketplace with the selected wallet.

{% hint style="info" %}
Sending an Approval Request can take a few seconds up to several minutes. Once the Approval has been completed a message as below will be shown.

With the Button "**Check Pending Transactions**" you'll be linked to the Etherscan Mempool to see your pending approval request.

After successful approval Butler will also rescan the approvals of your wallet to confirm and update Approved Marketplaces:
