Approval Response Options - give it an array of names

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2

Hello, 

 

I am trying to make an approval that essentially gives the response options as a list of direct reports for a given email. 

 

I am pulling the direct reports and building an array (called 'names'), but when I try to give that array in the Approval piece, it just generates an Approval with the verbatim text of the array rather than splitting it up among different options.

 

Is it possible to do what i'm trying? Thanks in advance!

    Hi @ejl,

     

    If I'm understanding your problem correctly, you can click on the icon with the tooltip to switch to a view that allows you to provide an array as response options.

    I hope this helps. If not, feel free to provide more context.
