Hi @amycolemanrocks ,
Could you please explain more details about your requirement?
Do you want the site Owners don't need to have to send the content approval however other user need?
I afraid that your requirement couldn't be achieved since if the library is setted that need to send the content approval, everyone would need the approval when create a new file.
So the approval could only be setted for all use in the library, or if you don't want the approval, you could set the library don't need to approval.
Best regards,
Alice
