Hello Community,

I have built a flow to share a file for approval with someone external to my team the flow is working well, except for that I cannot get my flow to update my sharepoint folder column "Approval Status" as it progresses. Any help would be really appreciated.

Updating approval status in sharepoint folder column

Hi,

Can you please share a screenshot or details of the flow?

Have you created the necessary actions to update a SharePoint list after the approval has been received?

Here is an example of what this flow would usually look like:

I can't see your condition values but I believe it's fine.

The issue is that the "Start and wait for an approval" action returns a list of responses even if there is only a single responder. You need to access this value inside an apply to each loop and update your SharePoint list inside this loop.

If you are having trouble understanding let me know and I can provide more details or screenshots.
