Repeating process issue

Posted on by Community Power Pla...

I ran into a problem - when everything gets approved, the approval process starts again (because it is in apply to each cycle). If I do not attach any file in "Start and wait for approval" action the apply to each cycle does not appear and the process does not repeat which is what I need.

However, I need to attach a file and when I do it, the apply to each cycle applies automatically with the attachment output from last step and since everything is in this cycle whole process starts again.

Is it possible to avoid the repeating process in this situation?

Re: Repeating process issue

Hi @Anonymous,

To provide repeat approval request generate, you could initialize an array variable to store these attachments into it.

{ "name": "file name", "content": "file content" }

Then append the variable into the approval request:
