Requested by and Pending Response showing the same person

Hi All, 

 

I have created an approval flow that triggers whenever a new SharePoint item is created.  I've granted my colleague with edit items permission  and ask him to create an item. as we test the flow, we've noticed  the requested by is showing requested by me, instead it should be requested by him though it shows the account that login in the the SharePoint List is his account.  anything I need to check or update or needs to add in my flow?

    Hi @vicsaisan ,

    You can try selecting one of these two options (depending on your needs), so that the drop-down selection will appear.

    Thanks a lot @v-yetonggu-msft . my bad I've filled in this before and  somewhat removed for no reason withnout knowing this is the one😅 ..  Since the display name for requested by  is  now working, wonder how the  requestor will be able to have more options dropdown in Teams whereas can choose follow up, re assign, and cancel.   We noticed this dropdown is gone after we added the requestor email.
