Hi all,

I encountered a problem while using a multi-step approval workflow.

The flow is current running, and the in-question assignee has already received the approval request, I also turned the reassign function OFF while setting up the flow.

For some reason, I want to change this assignee to someone else on condition that not starting a new workflow.

Any advice would be helpful.

Thank you!

Sebastian

It is possible in theory, but I have not been able to automate this. I tried what Resa shows in this video but could not get it to work: https://youtu.be/r8jk5xigpQg?si=vycpdSR7hNiTvA-S. Maybe you will have better luck. You can also check this post where a solution was accepted: Solved: Reassigning an Approver - Power Platform Community (microsoft.com)

David, Thanks for your reply. The second solution works for my problem. However, it requires a Premium license to get access to Dataverse. 😂

Regards,
Sebastian
