Posted on by FAli2

I have an approval flow. Once the user selects an approval (refect, approve, Need more info), I would like to log the response in a sharepoint list that has been created with responses from a form.

how do I reference the response from the approval flow then log it in the correct column in my sharepoint ?

Thanks for any suggestions and especially examples.

Hi @FAli2,

Do you want to store the approval history in a separate list?

For example, the request ID (renamed Title column), approver name, approver response, comments, and response date/time.

Each approval response should be a separate item in this list. Add the ‘Create item’ action after every approval action and create new item with the outcome.

Here is the testing result:
