I tried to do the other topics option, but I don't understand how.

 

Attached the output Pic although I did approve the request.

    What are you testing in your condition?  It should be Outcome not Response.

    @MEdward 

    As @Pstork1 mentioned, you need to be referencing Outcome.  In addition, you need to see if the Outcome equals Approve or Reject.  Many times I have seen where individuals use Approved or Rejected in their condition.

    Re: Approval Choice is always False

    I'm trying this flow on 2 different accounts, 

     

    Both have the same inputs, 

     

    One Say Reject, even though I Approved it; and the other always approve although I did Reject it.

     

    What the hell is going, why is It bugged??

     

    First Email:

     hr test 1.jpg

     

    hr test 2.jpg

    Second Email: 

     

    me test 1.jpgme test 2.jpg

    Note that I have 2 Control Condtion in the 2nd one;  it Only works as good as the first condition only.

    Where the first Condition got approved, While the Second one is rejected

    @MEdward 

    Your condition should probably look exactly like the screen shot below.  I reference the Outcome from the approval.  I check for Approve in the condition (not Approved).

    That Flow is using an older Approval action that output the results as Response.  The current Approval action outputs the overall response as Outcome, not Response. You need to use the Outcome dynamic content object in your condition.  If you don't see it then remove and re-add your Approval action.  You are evidently using an older one.  This can happen if you are working from a template.

    @MEdward 

    Your screen shot shows that you are referencing Response in your condition.  Please change from response to Outcome as I did in the screen shot above.
