Use Flow to approve a document

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi,

 

I've spent some times to search on the community but I've not found an anwser. I've activated the feature on Document library : Require content approval for submitted items to yes. I've build my Flow using Get comments from my team, added a Get properties from file, and everything is OK, but at the end of the approval process I can't see the property "Approval Status"  in the update action. I can see my custom properties but not the "Approval Status". There is no action to approve a document also ...

 

Is there a way to do this ?

 

Thanks a lot four help !

    Hi @Fla0683,

     

    Unfortunately, Microsoft Flow doesn’t support to update the “Approval Status” column of a SharePoint list or a Document library that has content approval enabled.

     

    Please refer to the response from STAFF merwan in the following thread:

    Flow Features

     

    If you would like this feature to be added in Microsoft Flow, please submit an idea to Flow Ideas Forum:

    Best regards,

    Kris
