Waiting for an Approval

Hello

I have an approval flow set up that requires multiple people to approve something. Everyone has responded and it is just sitting at the waiting for approval stage - it won't progress onwards despite all responses being in. Any thoughts?

All responses (5)

Is this a one time issue or does it happen every time?

Is it possible for it to hang for no reason? I checked and I definitely had responses from everyone. I cancelled it and it triggered the rest of the flow. I have re-entered the approval of but it looked fine

I don't see anything obviously wrong with the Flow.

If you have more than 1 approval action prior to this approval in your Flow, check to make sure that you selected the correct Approval ID.

I would also verify with all the approvers that they have taken action - don't take their word for it 🙂

I would ask for a screen shot of the Approvals section under Action items on the Flow site.

Can you post a screen shot of your Flow?
