Hi all
I would like to confirm the time out of Flow.
I think if there is no answer within 30 days, the Flow times out and fails.
Is there time out for Approval? We hope the action that need approval will not showed under the Action Items if it is pending out of 30 days, but it seems that 30 days is only the overall timeout of a Flow.
I have the same question (0)

    Hi @Anonymous 

     

    Currently the time out for approvals is also 30 days. You can however configure that by changing the settings of the action. Go to the settings of the action by clicking the ... on the top right of the action and add the timeout settings over there. You can refer to this blog for the same: https://www.o365dude.com/2018/06/02/timeout-flow-approvals/

     

    Hope this Helps!
