Hey there! unfortunately to get that inline experience you have to use the outlook web experience. The desktop experience will always take you to the Action Center in Power Automate

Thank you, great tutorial. We are having trouble with the update item action where people have then file checked out. Unfortunately the flow errors. I’ve added a run if parallel branch on fail to notify the author but seems the flow needs to start from the beginning of this occurs. Was also thinking about using the discard checkout action ahead of the update item action possibly. Also wondering if possible to record a persistent record of the workflow. I created a variable to capture and append the progressive comments and fed back to a SharePoint column but if the document undergoes another approval workflow the comments are overwritten. I tried to instead use the Content Approval feature but getting a 502 bad gateway issue. The idea was to add the outcomes and comments to the content approval comments so maintained in the documents version history. Actually, got this working, turns out it doesn’t work with minor and major versions... flow succeeds when only major versions are set for the library. also, there is a limit to how many times you can stack the condition. I had a workflow with 8 approval steps and it failed on step 7. In the summit last week there was an announcement on child flows... so this will probably help once available.

@WilliamWood1 3 года назад

This. Is. Amazing! Thanks Jon, this was incredibly helpful. One question, if you have multiple approvers for a single approval step how do you handle that on the SharePoint list side? Do you need to know ahead of time how many approvers there are going to be and put in a column for as many as you're going to have? Or is there a better way to handle this scenario? Thanks!

@newenegy2030 4 года назад

This is great, thank you. If I wanted to add more fields that the Approver has to fill in before authorizing the document is this possible? I'm looking at a chain of authorization for specific document sets. As the document moves through the authorization chain each person further up the hierarchy requires specific sets of information from the previous in order to approve. Relying on comments and including previous sets of comments is going to leave room for error. Thank you

This is great Jon! I have a question how about the signature approver/. they can view the attachment then signed and saved then approved.

@ForeverYoungCR7 4 года назад

Helpful video, thanks for your sharing! In our actual approval process, sometimes we can't just approve a single new item directly, instead we need to compare it with the similar items that have existed in our list already, for example defining if the new one is the best one. It's better the system can group the similar items together and then send to the approvers with a link or table so that they have a full list of similar items to make the decision easily. Is it possible to do that? Would you pls tell us some method or share us another video for this? Thanks in advance!

Hello John, I'm just getting into flow, and I love your videos. It's helped me so so much!!!! I went through your training videos and I couldn't really locate a video that covers my exact need, and I wanted to see if you can tell me if it's even possible to do. I need to create a Flow which the approval goes to the Manager of the Requestor + additional Approvers. The Approvers will change for each file as it needs to go to unique Approvers depending on who the end user would be for the file being uploaded, so I was wondering if there is a way for Flow to trigger a prompt for the Requestors to manually add additional Approvers' emails on top of the already present WF that kicks off the approval request to their Managers. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! thank you so much!!!

Delegating approvals when managers are out of the office seems like the only missing feature I see - would really need this to implement into my business. Any update here would be appreciated!

@amubeen71 4 года назад

@@andrew_mitchell To accomplish this, I have created admin account and added its email in the "Assign to" field of the "Start & wait Approval" action along with the actual approver's email. The approval email will go to both the actual approver and the admin account, so when the actual approver is on leave, the admin can approve the request. this works fine. Since we are using "First to respond" when one of them approves, the approver will not be able to approve again the same request. Hope it helps :)

@jasminekhan921 4 года назад

Hey Jon, thanks for posting this updated approval workflow. I am building the approval workflow using (CDS connector) in which i am updating the "Approved by" field (which is a lookup field to system Users) case entity. I am using "Start and wait for Approval-First one to respond". I am using the "Response comments" to update the case entity record - which makes it "Apply to each". My flow is failing as the Approver (user ID) returned by outlook (if approving in outlook) or Power Automate (if approving in PowerAutomate) are different than the same user's user id in D365. User ID from outlook and powerautomate are same. So with user id being different how do i get "Approved by" updated on Case entity in D365?

Hi Jon, any tips on how to create a parallel approval workflow where the approval emails are triggered based on the requestor input? Example: requestor ask for access to building A, building B but not building C, each building has different approvers so the worflow will send two emails, one to approver for building A and another to approver for building B. Once all approvals are received, trigger an email to building admin to process the request. Input will be much appreciated.

Hi Jon, I am trying to create a multi-layered approval flow with power automate where I need to customize the Approval branch. So, let's assume, we have already updated the Sharepoint List and sent the email as you have in your video, but now, we need to branch out a request condition to another department where we ask if there is a "Reward Card" so that the response = "reward card" and then if there is a reward card - send back the response to the approver, and then forward that response once again to another department, to get the Card # and send the response back to the approver. So, in fact, there is a 3 level approval process where all gets captured in a Sharepoint List of the multi-approval levels. How to?

End goal is to show the end user that the page they're reading should be "signed" by clicking on a "Read and acknowledged" button on the page, and if possible show a status "X of Y users have approved this document". The page shouldn't really ever end it's approval cyclus, but is to be continously prompting any new users to sign acknowledged or re-request signing if a update happens. Can anyone point me in the right direction for how I could achieve something along these lines? 🤔

Hello Jon, Thank you. This video is very helpful. I created an Employee Suggestion Approval. I would like to know how we can modify the email notification being send to the approver. I run some test with other user, and my name still appears as Requested By. But in the form I made a field Created by and users put their names.

Try to use an alternative with google form and apps script

In 2010 Designer Approvers could be dynamically assigned from access groups in form view upon creation. SPO no longer has form view and uses attention view which is terrible, in that meta data is done after upload, which leaves the general users asking where their content went. Statically assigning an approver in a flow is ridiculous for large organizations and is not a good general use case. This issue has been raised under MSFT user voice.

Hi I am very new learner to flows. But I want to do some task using this app. Can you help me how I can? Application is simple to get information from different user with help of forms. Save at one point then depending on the region other person will reply to only perticular person where he is assigned to. (Specific person for specific region). Then the responder response is stored at the same place where it was requested by form on the same time mail will be given to the person who filled the form.

Hi Jon, I have a question. At the 23:02 mark of your video you display the option to leave feedback in the actual email. How was that approval variation created?

@JonJLevesque 4 года назад

If you used web based outlook you can get the actionable emails right on your inbox :)

@@JonJLevesque Thanks. Is there a way to enable comments? I have a flow that approves through excel but when the email is sent to the approver, the option for comments is not available until I reach the power automate site after approving the request.

Hi. I have a problem with flow, because I have 5 approvals and 4 of them got a notifications (from mail) and message with approve or reject but last of them did not get anything. Maybe someone has similar problem? Or limit for user who are attached to this?

@melaniebroxis576 4 года назад

Any ideas on how to have multiple approvals at the same time which could vary in number (there could be 1 to 4 max) and only when they all are approved the list updates to say approved and the requester is emailed to say all have approved?

@JonJLevesque 4 года назад

If you use the “all must approve” selector in your approval it will do just that! :)

@melaniebroxis576 4 года назад

@@JonJLevesque Thanks - I have that, my problem is I can't get it to send me 1 notification when all have approved. I get a notification for each approval instead.... I also want it to update my list in sharepoint to say it's approved, only when everyone has approved. Any ideas for this?!

Hi Jo, Thanks for the video's they are brilliant, But, But but. i have created a flow (whic works perfect) following your instructions but, when the approval email is sent to a Desktop "Outlook" account and I click on Approve / Declione it then opens a web browser of "approval Flows" and to approve there. When the approval email is opened on amobile device using "Outlook" app it can be approved in the email body. when I open the request on "Outlook.office.com" web browser I can approve in the email body. How can i remove the step of the Desktop version of Outlook sending me to "approvals Flow" web page to approve an item. I have also posted this on the Microsoft "Power Apps" & Power Automate" forums but no soluton yet and Have my app planned to go live this Friday. Thanks for any advice to avoid the web browser opening and complete the approval in the email body in Outlook Desktop version. Ciaran.

What happens to flow if item is rejected? How does it get submitted again for approval with changes?
