Start and Wait for an approval - change sender

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by KotaroKo 133

Hi, guys! When I send an approval as a sender "Microsoft Flow" is mentioned. I tried and typed my name into "requested" property, but "Microsoft Flow" as a sender remains. I want my name to be written as a sender not 'Microsoft Flow". Is there any way to change this?

    Hi @KotaroKo,

     

    It's unfortunate that change the sender is not supporting yet, as a workaround, you could add the Approval request, for more details, you could refer to this post:
