Not updating Approval status when i update a list item

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 58

Hello everyone,


when I update a sharepoint list with a patch, the approval status is unfortunately always automatically set from "approved" to "pending". I would like to ensure that the approval status is not changed when I update a list item.


Thank you in advance!

    hey @Masakichi123 

     

    can you give us more insight of what you are doing? Are you only using powerapps? How do you update the item? Do you also use power automate for updating?

    @mmbr1606 : Hello and thanks for your answer,

     

    I have defined a symbol "Check". If you click on it, a popup will open asking you whether you want to carry out the action. If you click on the confirm button, the following command will be executed:

     

    Patch(Termine;Gallery6.Selected;{Title:Gallery6.Selected.Title; 'Buchungen vorhanden?':true;'Kommentar zur Buchung':TextInput7.Text; Inhaltsgenehmigungsstatus:"Approved"});;Set(varShowBox5;false);;Reset(TextInput7);;Notify("Informationen zur Buchung wurden erfolgreich gespeichert!";NotificationType.Success;5000)

     

    The content approval status automatically jumps to "Pending" when this change is made, which I would like to prevent. Unfortunately, the call within the content approval status of the patch function does not work.

    Addendum: I only use Power Apps to update existing list items; Power Automate controls the approval process when a new item is added to the SharePoint list.
