Hello Team, 

 

I dont know if im the only one experiencing this problem.  I am creating a simple approval flow and I want the approval to be sequential for the levels of approval. 

On the Start and wait for Approval, anytime I choose Mail in the *Assigned to, then a new step is automatically created with the name Apply to each with value in the field *Select an output from previous steps

What is causing this problem and how do i get over this? because this also repeats in the conditions when i choose Mail
 
Thank you

    If you want to use the property of the array, Apply to each will display.

    If you want to get all mails and fill them in Assigned to, please try the following methods:
