Approval flow - Approve in mobile email or Desktop email differs (opens a web browser)

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi Guys,

 

I am using the flow "Start approval when a new item is added" in a sharepoint list. The flow works perfect and on a mobile device in your outlook email when you can click "approve / Reject within the email it will update sharepoint.

 

But if you are accessing the approval email on a Desktop or laptop  when you click "Approve /  Reject" it will re-direct you to Microsoft flows page to review and approve/reject there.

 

Can this step be elinimted, as I am looking to reduce down this extra step.  Looking to have the task complete in the email instead of opening flow on a web tab.

 

Thanks for the help or advice.
