Hi @Abdel_dahak ,

You can try setting the Requester in the approval action (below) to send approvals on behalf of.

Alternatively, you can use a service account (dedicated M365 account for running flows)

Hi Eric,

Thank you for your Reply.
I entered the name of the requestor and his name appears in the email "no problem", but in addition to the requestor, there is always my name which appears as the creator.

Best regards
