Approvals Widget - approvalsFilter

Integrate Power Automate with websites and apps - Power Automate | Microsoft Docs

The Approvals Center widget has an ability to filter approval requests using the approvalsFilter setting however there is very little documentation about the options available for this setting. So far I have only managed to get the widget to filter approvals based on the content of the Item Link field. For example

approvalsFilter: 'properties/itemlink eq \'my-test-value\''

I have tried other filters like...

approvalsFilter: 'properties/name eq \'my-test-value\''

approvalsFilter: 'properties/id eq \'7f0f5bfe-55bf-4f5c-a09d-a540a916df26\''

approvalsFilter: 'properties/approvalid eq \'7f0f5bfe-55bf-4f5c-a09d-a540a916df26\''

...but none of them seem to work.

Does anyone have any information on what properties we can filter on?

Hello alistairhunt - Have you heard anything on this issue from Microsoft. We are using this widget in the custom apps (expressjs) and don't see the approvalfilter working. Any suggestion?

Hi manoj-negi, I am afraid I haven't had any further responses to my original question. I also haven't spent any more time working on this solution at the moment either so I don't have any more suggestions on how to resolve.

Hello Team,

I can understand that it would be quite disappointing for you that “approvalsFilter” setting can’t be used. Based on PG team feedback, right from the beginning this feature was not intended for consumption by customers. In other words, the feature which you are looking for was not supported and PG team will soon fix this documentation.

But, if you would like to have the properties implemented that can be used to filter approvals, please describe the behavior and submit your idea here - Give Feedback & Share Ideas - Power Platform Community (microsoft.com).

Once you have submitted this idea, please share it with us. So that, I can request my team to update their votes for this feature. In this way other users who also think it would be a good feature can vote to this request. PG team will We keep an eye on this discussion board to understand what features most are wanted by customers and will prioritize accordingly.

Please let me know if I can be of any more help or consider this case archived.

Looking forward to your response.

Kind Regards,
