Great tutorial Reza as always. Using combination of AI connectors and this new action can open enormous possibilities in the process automation. Thanks a ton as always to you for your great work of teaching. 🙏🏻
Great tutorial, I like the additional fields option on the approval action. Now is it possible to display the image source content (if I extract/OCR data from an image and then I want a reviewer to validate the extracted data) on the approvals screen with the extracted fields on the side? I want to display both the image content and the editable fields values on the same approval UI? How could I achieve this? Thank you
You cannot show the image there as far as I know. You could send it as an attachment. Also, you could use the description of the approval action to show the value.
@@RezaDorrani Thanks for your response. I don't want to give to the reviewer an option to download the image to their local computer. I would like to display the image content on the UI to allow the reviewers to see the image content to be able to correct the extracted fields values from the AI builder or form recognizer. Is that possible?
@@RezaDorrani please how could I accomplish this in an Azure logic app flow (using document intelligence and gpt to query on extracted text)? The reason why I want to use Azure document intelligence for ICR as it read better than AI Builder hand written (I've tested the same document on both tools but the AI builder is not returning the correct values for some fields like first name ai builder is returning the the zip code as first name). So in Azure logic app flow, I want to extract data from form and then add gpt step to send to gpt a query from the returned text or json response. Thanks

Hi Reza! Thank you for this great video! Do you know when this new feature will be available in Teams? When I open the approval requests from Teams, I cannot modify the suggested text.
@Reza, thanks for another great video. I have one question. When trying to use this new approval on a sharepoint list, I get the error message that "The current user does not have permission to create a Microsoft Dataverse database fir this environment" For your video, it looks like you are using a SharePoint list. Can you provide some feedback? Thank you !
@@RezaDorrani thank you for your prompt response. OK, that is my issue. I don't have a dataverse setup for the app that this new functionality would be super useful, I only created a Sharepoint and 2 lists with a custom form in PowerApps (Canvas) and with that I'm able to use the "regular" approval "Create and wait for an approval" without issues. Again, thanks for your feedback. I'll check your videos to see how I can setup that so I can use this new functionality as I need to use a SharePoint site per my boss request. Thanks CQ 🙏
ah i see thanks @@RezaDorrani . how about triggering approval from power automate, but we are using custom template design of approval (not using the default one)?
Again great video📹👍 Thank you! Your video is always helpful, so RU-vid should automate the like and suggest comments on your videos... 😆😆😆 Just like this video... 😜
nice mate... very nice. And, as you mentioned, given today's AI environment, it's a must have. Question, a big swath of the office 365 includes government Users (specifically referring to those NOT in the GCC High tenant) do not have access to actionable messaging from approvals action in Power Automate. This is very problematic on many levels. Aside from teams (poor adoption rate vs. outlook), is there an alternative? With the introduction of AI, Microsoft may want to re-think current restrictions with the approval action. How else will this very large swath of customers be able to responsibly leverage the new AI technologies. It's more likely to be deployed without taking this very important step... love your wok mate...
Thanks! I am not keeping of track for GCC feature sets. I believe there must be some restrictions related to actionable messaging there. I agree that these feature sets would be a great add-on to GCC.
Hello Reza, i´m looking on a guideline / Video for an approval workflow for crossfunctional Process descriptions. I have currently a flow where i can after creating a document on sharepoint, within a doc bib, send a approval request to a dynamic number of people and when everyone has approved the document is marked as released. Afterwards i get a notification with teams, including a small overview who has approved and when. My Problem is now, when the documented is printed and released in the various production areas, i cannot see on the document who, and when the document was approved. My idea would be to change the flow, that the word document is created in a list, then the approval route is started, the approvals are then put in the word-document by the workflow automatically and when all approvals are given, a pdf version of the Word-Document is generated and put in a separate Folder. Is that possible? The problems i see are the not fixed number of approvers, and in general the complexity :(
Wow! That’s some requirement. Not something I have tried or have a video reference for and hence not sure of what options are available. I will recommend checking or posting your query on forums in case someone has done something similar powerusers.microsoft.com
Thanks for the suggestion. My rule for building videos is simple -> I make videos when I receive multiple requests on a topic. Every quarter I ask subscribers for topic suggestions on Community Tab of my channel. Most voted topic ideas get added to my backlog. Make sure to suggest this idea whenever the next topic suggestion post is out.
Thanks Reza for another advanced comprehensive tutorial! I have a question here..Is it possible to provide custom UI for users to approve this action in our canvas App instead of email and approval center. Thanks again! Looking forward to your next awesome content release.
No direct option for canvas app. If you notice for advanced option as well, I linked user to approval center. Probably there may be a way by updating all approval tables (many tables handle approval process) but that is not something I have attempted
Hey Reza. As always great video! Thank you! Can you please tell me how to send selection options (A, B, C) instead of text so that the approver selects one of the options?

I just Fond this Video and Wanted to try and rebuild the Flow from the Video. However I Cant find the "Create Text with GPT" Action anywhere. Was it removed or just renamed? If anyone knows it Would be very helpful

This action fails if there is no suggested text. I wanted to add Comments from a sharepoint list as suggested text but Comments are not mandatory so not always present. How can I prevent the flow from failing and let the approver still enter their own text into Suggested Text

Hi Rezza , is there any way to trigger a Manual flow automatically , like instead of manually pressing the button . My scenario is to transfer data from Power Bi to SharePoint list and i m using a button to trigger it , is there any other possible way pls

Hi Mr Reza, first thank you for the video. I've two doubts/ questions my 1st question is, It is sending a notification to the teams i wanted to avoid that, and my second question is, There's one comment box under the approval dropdown, if it approves it is fine, if i reject the approval i need to give a reason why i rejected and that comment box should needs be mandatory. Can you pl tell me how to do that? Openes to all.
1 - teams notification can be avoided by setting notifications to off but that would stop all notifications and then you can send you own custom email but you will lose actionable messaging. 2 - comment box cannot be made mandatory. One option would be to assign the task again to the approver if comment is not provided.
@@RezaDorrani 1. Indeed but I don't want to do that in team settings, and one more When I click approve in the mail it takes me to another screen i.e., the power automate screen. Since my Manager is too lazy to click multiple clicks can we add those Input boxes within the email body?? just an idea.
Do you have tutorial for multiple simultaneous approvers in Power Automate wherein if one of them rejects, the approval will restart only for them and not the other approvers? I have been struggling to find solutions and tutorials for that

@@RezaDorraniI have tried to build a flow with GPT step without approval step after gpt but when I try to save the flow it errors saying I need to always add an approval step after the GPT step. How to resolve this please? Thanks
@@RezaDorrani Thanks for your reply. Is there a workaround to bypass the approval step after GPT in the flow (if we have to proceed thousands of batches then it will be lot of manual approvals tasks? Also I noticed that the Pre-built Azure document intelligence has better accuracy/results (e.g: signature detection) than the AI builder models. Is there a way to call an azure logic app flow that does the ICR to my power automate flow? If yes, can you please provide sample with video tutorials?
@@dadicam 1 - Im not aware of a way to bypass it 2 - Yes you can call azure models using http connectors. Not something I have tried though. I recommend checking or posting your query on forums in case someone has done something similar powerusers.microsoft.com
