Check status/progress of Approval requests

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi how can I check the status/progress of a multi-user approval Flow? I know I can review the 'Sent' approval however this simply lists all the users to whom the approval has been sent, it doesn't show where the approval progress is up to or who is holding things up? I am using the 'Start and wait for an approval' action which reads in a set of users from a Site Group in SPO and this is working fine. I just need to find a simple way to determine who has responded and who hasn't? I have even included a timeout branch which also works fine but again doesn't give me the insight I need. Can I write the progress/status/approver comments out to a list somehow? How would I build this into the Flow because as far as I can see there is nothing to allow me to 'intercept' the flow action while it's running? I know I can update a list item as a follow-on action but that only occurs AFTER the Approval has completed it's full round of approvals. Thanks for any assistance on this.

    Unfortunately, there is no simple way to check this until the Approval is complete.  Until that time the only way to check the current status would be to check the Approval record in CDS.  This requires a premium license.
