Forms - Requestor Details

Hi there,

 

I use Power Automate for starting an approval process after sending a Forms response.

 

As requestor there is always my own Name shown, independently who of my organization fills out the form. How can I change this?

 

BR,

smag

    Hi @smag ,

     

    Could you clarify your question more specificly?

    Do you mean you want to assign the approval to the one who submit the form?

     

    Best regards,

    Hey,

     

    no, that is not what I mean.

    The assigned person is always myself.

    But in the message for the approver the requestor is shown. And no matter who sends the request / forms, in the approval information is always shown "Requested by: smag"

    Thanks for further reply.

    Could you please show me your settings of the approval and its outputs?

    I think I resolved this - fortunately 🙂

     

    Instead of "Get my User profile" I used "Look for user profile", now it works!
