Approval flow body formatting different on teams

Posted on by Rdab

Hi,

I have already successfully created a "start and wait for approval" flow which send an approval request via email to an approver.

I have noticed this request is also sent to the approver via Microsoft teams. I would like to use Microsoft teams to approve requests however the body formatting is very messy in teams as suppose to the email format. Please see below and attached documents.

Approval body format via email:

Hi ,

There is a leave application pending your approval.

- Type: Annual Leave

- Description: Full Day

- Start Date: 03/02/2021

- End Date: 03/02/2021

- Hours: 15

Approval body format via teams (incorrect):

#Hi , There is a leave application pending your approval. - Type: Annual Leave - Description: Full Day - Start Date: 03/02/2021 - End Date: 03/02/2021 - Hours: 15

Thanks in advance

Hi @mobashee

I get the same behaviour as in the Teams approval center. Message not formatted. Could that be related to the version of the Teams approval app - in our tenant i see v1.0.0 used?

This is the view from Teams. Notice how the formatting is wrong, despite it being correct on the outlook email.

@Rdab FYI - i think it is confirmed product bug, here is the github issues i found on this - Approvals App for Teams · Issue #6497 · MicrosoftDocs/OfficeDocs-SkypeForBusiness (github.com)
