Would you be able to help me please. I have created a form in Sharepoint with a PowerApp form for holiday requests. I have created a workflow to work with it, but am not able to get it working how I need it to. Basic problem I am having is that

The workflow should, once the form has been completed and saved, the workflow should then forward the completed form to the relevant manager to either approve or reject.
Once the manager has completed his/her section i.e. approved or rejected the request, the workflow should then send an email to the requester with the response.
It also need to update the list in Sharepoint to change the status from Pending to either Approved or Rejected.

I have been trying to get this to work for weeks and whilst bits of it works, other bits don’t. It stops at 'Apply to Each' where the conditions are and the Yes/No email are situated

Can anyone advise please?

Hi @DebsWadge ,

The error message indicates that you filled wrong type of value into the "Apply to each" input.
Could you hover your cursor over the "Output" dynamic content to let me check what content it really is?

Also please clarify what operation would you like to finish here with the "Apply to each" loop so that I can help to advise. Thank you!

Hi

Many thanks for your response to my query.

Were you able to see the attachment I added to the query. It shows the error message, and then when I expanded the section in ‘Edit’ it then shows what I have entered in, which is clearly incorrect.

What I need the workflow to do is send the request to the manger selected on the form. The manager then should either accept or reject the request and send the appropriate email to the requestor and finally update the Sharepoint list from Pending to either approved or rejected.

I can share my screen with you on Teams if it makes it easier for you.
