Approval Flow auto update list with Approvers name

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Is there a way for the flow process to autmotically update the list with the Approvers actual name that approved it?  What we currently have and is working is the flow process " Approved" Yes or No.  We would like the actual name of the approver to be listed.

    Hi!

     

    I'm afraid that you can't do that using the "approve by e-mail" connector. To gather further data in your flow you'll have to use a form connector instead, lie JotForms or MS Forms. In a advanced scenario you can buil your own connector.

    We are using the regular Approval template, Should'nt it be as easy as an update item flow??  I guess I do not follow what you are saying about the connector.
