Can you modify Approval after it is started?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 29

Hello, 

 

I have a flow set up now that whenever a user enters a new sharepoint list item an approval is triggered based off of the entry. 

 

My issues is sometimes the user makes mistakes and they are able to correct it in the sharepoint list but the approval is already sent out reflecting the incorrect data. 

 

Is there a way I can change my flow to update the approval if the user modifies the sharepoint list items. Or is there a way to cancel the approval if the item is modified and send out a new one?

    Hello, @Techy1234!

     

    I think there isn't an option to delete or update an approval sent to an user. You'd have to update your flow and send a new one. (IF someone knows a way, please share)

     

    Cheers!
