Hello,
I need help with a flow I'm creating. Basically, it's an approval flow, but what it also does in show you the progress of the approvals. From when the flow was created, who the approver(s) are, when they approved it, and/if it when on to another approver and how long it's taking. It also tells you the status, from New to Pending to Complete.
For the most part, it's working well. I create my item and the flow begins, I can see it's new and once the first approver approves it, it goes to the second approver, I see it's now pending. But then it just stops. When I test the flow, it gets hung up on the "Approval Pending Since" value of Null.
Here is the YouTube video I watched to create this, (2) SharePoint Approval Timeline | Power Automate Approvals + Column Formatting + Approval History - YouTube
Thank you to everyone who takes the time to help me, I REALLY appreciate it.
The easiest way to deal with potential null values is to put a coalesce() function around them when you use them. Coalesce will read the parameters you supply from left to right and return the first one that is non-null. So if you use a value in a field that might have a null value you can use coalesce to replace it with a static value or just an empty string.

coalesce(outputs('valueyouwant'),'N/A')in the expression above if the outputs value is null N/A will be used instead.
