    Hi @kkkannan,

    Have you solved your problem?

    Do you want to customize Approval flow?

    Could you please share a bit more about your need?

     

    Generally, we need to determine the user who will approval the approval, if he is your manager, you could select Office 365 Users connector and choose Get my profile (V2) action, which could fetch the manager of the current user.

    Here is how I custom my approval flow based on the template.

     

    1. Starts when someone creates a vacation request in a SharePoint Online list.
    2. Adds the vacation request to the approval center, and then emails it to the approver.
    3. Sends an email with the approver's decision to the person who requested vacation.
    4. Create a calendar event or updates the SharePoint Online list with the approver's decision comments.

    If my understanding is correct, please take a try as below:

    1). If a new item is created, note that the Start and wait for an approval action will send an email automatically to the people who should approve this request. (Please ignore the first condition I set in my scenario)

    2). Add a condition and select Responses Approver response from the list of dynamic values. Select the Choose a value box on the right, and then enter Approve into the box. If the approval approved your request, an email will sent to you.

    3). A calendar event will be created for the approval:

    Check if this could help you.

    Also, here is a similar thread and an official doc you could check for reference.
