Hi Reza , very well explained . May you also advise how can we create a send back process to the selected previous steps in the flow . So I need Submit / approved/ rejected and send back buttons for the user .
Brilliant Reza, this will be so useful for so many people! It’s great it’s from within an app but just the ability to move it through multiple approvers and all the code you explained for that is invaluable. Thank you!
Thank you Reza, for this detailed tutorial on viewing approval results. It's been incredibly helpful! I'm hopeful that we'll soon have the capability to create custom screens in Power Apps, where we can conveniently fetch and manage requested approval items instead of relying solely on emails. Looking forward to more advancements in this area. Thanks again mate!
Thanks Reza, I am just starting out in Power Apps (coming from Nintex Forms). I will be using this App as a base template for a responsive Leave Request Approval app and a Training Request approval app.
Hi @BreathingAir Why have you moved from nintex ? With this 2 months experience, would you consider that power platform is more accessible than Nintex to orchestrate simple validation workflows ?
@@julienschryve1883 Our on-prem is Nintex and it's a lot easier to work with SharePoint lists and libraries. Power Automate is great for all M365 but it sucks when features are locked behind the "Premium" license.
Thank you Reza, I will use this concept of multiple approves being selected and sending sequential approvals. I will use this for document library approvals
Reza as normal another excellent tutorial and so simple to follow, your manner and the way you explain things make it so easy to follow. Thank you so much
Thanks so much for Reza, you have no idea how i mastered power apps with your videos. kindly make a same concept with a custom approval in side power apps without power automate. appreciate your work.
This is just a super video with new Power Apps template. A clarification. For approvers who are in senior leader role wants approver required using Outlook client at Android or iOS, considering latest outlook has been used, do we have dependency from Power Apps or Power Automate? The don’t want additional apps such as Power Apps / Power Automate at their phones.
Approval decision can be made from outlook, teams, approval dashboard and power automate mobile app. Multiple choices are available. Approver is free to choose their medium.
Thanks Reza, you are a big help to those who are just starting to explore power apps. May i know if you have a tutorial on how to create for multiple approver that can approve simultaneously. Thanks in advance.
Thanks! Video description has link to download entire solution (members only - check description for details) I would suggest giving that a try. As for the issue mentioned, I have not experienced it and hence not sure what the cause for it could be.
A cool video would be on custom approvals! Approvals without using the powerautomate approval action but done directly in the PoweApp. We have done it at work but would love to see your spin on it. Sometime it can be limiting with reassignment history and sending approvals back a step without restarting the whole approval process again. Just an idea. Great video as always!
Thanks for another excellent tutorial. I have two questions: 1) Is there any scenario where you would recommend maintaining it in a separate history list? 2) Is there a way to reassign an approval request using standard connectors?
I love your detailed and easy-to-follow guides! Do you have a course on Udemy or elsewhere? I'd pay for more of this! (I know you have office hours which I'll likely sign-up for as well)

Hello, Reza. You are making great videos and very helpful. I got a requests many time, Would you be able to create video for Cascading Combo Box (Multi Selections for Region, Country, State). It would help many users . I see a lot of requests or tickets online but no one is able to solve or respond it to those ticket.

Great video tutorial again and quite a bit of moving parts as well especially, in the Flow. Will definitely have another watch to embed the concepts a bit more. A quick question.... Is a video on the Approver Kit in your plans anytime soon? I believe its still in preview but will be good to see something on it, both the configuration and then a use case. Thank you
Hello Reza- Thak you again for your help! The Flow is working properly and is very useful. I have a question how we can build up a logic to Resubmit the Request Form for Approvals when approver rejecting the item. Is there any video for the same? Please do let me know. Thanks Again!

Excellent Reza!!!. Please I have a gallery that spend a lot of time to load the datas, but my database has no 300 rows. In this page I have some dropdown and input text to filter the gallery. Could you give me some hint?
Welcome! I have not experienced any issues and cannot guess without deep diving into your scenario. I recommend posting your issue/query with screenshots on the forums at powerusers.microsoft.com in case someone has experienced something similar.
I think the Approval Type should be "Everyone must respond" instead "First to Respond" like you did in this video. In that case, it will only wait for the first responder and then finish the flow. correct me if I am wrong. Thanks.
Hi Reza, excellent video. Thank you very much. I have a question. When you create this flow in Power Automate, is the item's history only affected by you? So, the security data about whether someone approved it or not would only be saved in the Power Automate flow? How can we improve traceability in this case?
Thanks for your videos Reza! If it´s possible, I would like to suggest a new topic that perhaps you can help us on your next video. I have already developed a power app to control attendance. My goal it´s to improve it and use an RFID reader that captures the assistance and sends the info associated with the RFID card (user, time...) to a SharePoint list. Hope you can help with this! If not thanks

Thank you, Sir. This is very helpful for my app. A small concern is that, could you please add a notification for each approval and rejection? Once it is completed, the initiator will receive a completion notification.
That is not a concern :) I have done many approval based videos where I have sent notifs to users and more. They are all placed in approvals playlist on my channel.
Thx Reza. it is excellent. Kindly let me know how do you ensure that users will not access to the backside SharePoint list as this could jeopardize the Apps flow process ?
Reza, thank you very much for your videos. I am learning a lot and getting several ideas for an employee evaluation app I'm working on. A specific question for this demonstration. Is there a way for the user to perform the approval action directly on the screen with the event information? I assume it would be a button OnSelect, but I do not know what action it would do to reference the official approval function. Any suggestions? Thanks again for your videos.
Most welcome! This technique uses power automate approvals and that requires user to approve/reject in flow. If you want specific to app then check ua-cam.com/video/Om4beefKmV0/v-deo.htmlsi=WxsXZ7OkYgh9-oRC
Hello Reza, as you introduced, the sequencial approval is being introduced to power automate, could you refurbish your this video with new feature of sequence approval, i believe that would be more straightforward to construct flow comparing to this approach❤
Amazing video, thank you very much!! I have one question, is there a reason why my people column fields in the PowerApps table appear blank instead of the Claims name?
I am using latest authoring version of app. May be thats why. Please note that the table control is currently in preview. You can always leverage a gallery control to show the same data.
This is a great session. Now, what happens if a person, say the first approver, forwards the approval request email to another person who was not in the approval list? Will that person be able to click and approve, because it doesn't look like there is a session check when you click that button - which is dangerous for Pharma Industry, where the e-signature is legally binding
Excellent video @Reza, have been learning a lot with you. Quick question, I don’t want a sequential approval, I want to send all the approvers at the same time. Would it be the same approach just changing the „start and wait approval“ mode? Thanks in advance
@@RezaDorrani Thanks for the quick reply. Would it be possible to keep exact the same structure that you have in your video? I tried to adapt it, however not successful. I wanted to updated the status of each individual answer as soon as there is an answer from the approver. thanks a lot
@@renmui As far as I know, there is no direct feature (in approvals) that gives you a live update of a response for a scenario which assigns task to multiple approvers in one go. You may want to check on forums in case someone has done something similar powerusers.microsoft.com/

Hi Reza, Thanks for the video,this is very helpful. Quick query, after replacing the approvers combo box with classic combo box and replacing the combox names,setting the shown properties in video when I submit a form , the approvers data is not getting saved in the table. Approver column is showing blank. Not sure if I am missing anything here? Please note that I am able to select multiple approver names
That's awesome, but I wonder if you missed to mention how the decision taken column gets updated, how does it move from default 0 to next. It will be great if you can help me, because I have done similar way by having my approvers in the array instead of a person choosing the approvers now I am stuck on how to change the gallery control colors if it approved or rejected with respect to approvers.
Video is designed with user selecting approvers. It can be updated to include an array as long as the array data is saved to that multi select choice column.

Hi Reza, I hope you're doing well. Thank you for sharing this video. I was wondering if you could help me understand if we can implement a document approval process using Microsoft apps. Specifically, I'm interested in knowing if we can ensure that the document is protected from editing once a single member has approved it. Additionally, I'm curious if we can create a restricted access repository on SharePoint for the approved document.
I have done several approval based videos (all placed in a playlist on my channel) Mainly I have done list related approvals but same concept applies for documents. You can also set item permissions to make the item/file read only.
Reza, I have a very similar use case but I have one selectable approver (who will be first in the approval chain), but I also have three SET approvers that will follow in a predetermined order. What's the best way to handle this? help! Love the video, this is a perfect solution for me.
@@RezaDorrani do you have a particular video where you cover this? I'm so sorry, I'm struggling to find what I'm looking for. Basically I want to have the "approvers" field exactly like in here, except formatted identical to the Assigned to. Then, the Approvers card is populated with the entry from the "Business GM" field, followed by three predefined individuals. thank you again!
@@dakralter4957I dont have a specific video on your ask but I have done various types of approval videos. You would need to combine logic from multiple videos.
Great Video Reza, learning a lot from your videos. A question, if I don't want the user to pick approvers and instead have pre-defined approvers. How can that be approached for Approvers field?
@@RezaDorrani Yes, that is the workaround, have done it that way. I was just wondering if in some way, it could be pre-populated in the form itself. Thanks for your response.
Thanks again. I have one question, the rectangle bar that show connection of approval process in the gallery. How do we set them to not show in the last item?
Hello Reza, thank you a lot for this video. I am working on a very similar project and this was extremely helpful. My app is working just fine and creating the new items in the sharepoint list. But the Flow is not triggering when the new item is created and I cannot found why. Any advice on where to look?

Hello Reza! Thank you for the highly educational content! My question is this: Is an approval flow necessary or preferred for specific reasons? Why do we not just bake this logic in the Power App (with deep linking etc.)?
Welcome! Flow approvals come with actionable messaging in email, teams and more will come in future. Deep linking and handling in apps is an option as well. Its a choice that you can make based on what works best for you.
@@RezaDorrani Thanks for taking the time!!! I was wondering because the approval-flow implementation is easier to do in a "linear" way, however once you have split approval chains or conditionally added approvers it seems that it would get much more difficult to handle with a single flow. Once again thanks for everything!
Thanks for this…however, I get an error in my flow The input parameter(s) of operation 'Condition' contains invalid expression(s). Fix invalid expression(s) for the input parameter(s) of operation 'Condition'…. I selected outcome is equal to Approve… any help?

I make videos when I receive multiple requests on a topic. Every 6 months I ask subscribers for topic suggestions on Community Tab of my channel. Most voted topic ideas get added to my backlog. Make sure to suggest this idea whenever the next topic suggestion post is out.
Thank you very much 🎉
Most welcome
Great video tutorial again and quite a bit of moving parts as well especially, in the Flow. Will definitely have another watch to embed the concepts a bit more. A quick question.... Is a video on the Approver Kit in your plans anytime soon? I believe its still in preview but will be good to see something on it, both the configuration and then a use case. Thank you
Thanks!
Yes, this video has a lot of moving pieces.
Currently, no plans for a video on approval kit as I have received very few requests on it.
@@RezaDorrani I pray the requests increases dramatically.... Lol. 🤣🤣
Thank you Reza for such a good video, especially for the begginers like me. Can u pls give me the link to download the Power App & flow shown in video
Link is available in community tab for members only (silver or higher)
Hello Reza- Thak you again for your help! The Flow is working properly and is very useful. I have a question how we can build up a logic to Resubmit the Request Form for Approvals when approver rejecting the item. Is there any video for the same? Please do let me know. Thanks Again!
Most welcome!

@@RezaDorrani -Ofcourse- That will be great. Thank you!
Excellent Reza!!!. Please I have a gallery that spend a lot of time to load the datas, but my database has no 300 rows. In this page I have some dropdown and input text to filter the gallery. Could you give me some hint?
Welcome!
I have not experienced any issues and cannot guess without deep diving into your scenario.
I recommend posting your issue/query with screenshots on the forums at powerusers.microsoft.com in case someone has experienced something similar.
I think the Approval Type should be "Everyone must respond" instead "First to Respond" like you did in this video. In that case, it will only wait for the first responder and then finish the flow.
correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks.
The flow assigns approval task to a single approver at a time. So choosing either of those options wont matter.
Hi Reza, excellent video. Thank you very much.
I have a question. When you create this flow in Power Automate, is the item's history only affected by you?
So, the security data about whether someone approved it or not would only be saved in the Power Automate flow?
How can we improve traceability in this case?
I have done several approval videos showcasing how to store approval history for traceability. I will recommend checking my approvals playlist.
Thanks for your videos Reza!
If it´s possible, I would like to suggest a new topic that perhaps you can help us on your next video. I have already developed a power app to control attendance. My goal it´s to improve it and use an RFID reader that captures the assistance and sends the info associated with the RFID card (user, time...) to a SharePoint list.
Hope you can help with this! If not thanks

This looks to be what I need! The only other request I have is for the current approver to get a reminder email after 3 days - is this possible?
Everything is possible but not something I have planned in part 2 of the video.
Thank you, Sir. This is very helpful for my app. A small concern is that, could you please add a notification for each approval and rejection? Once it is completed, the initiator will receive a completion notification.
That is not a concern :)
I have done many approval based videos where I have sent notifs to users and more. They are all placed in approvals playlist on my channel.
Reza great video as usual! Could this be adapted for a parallel approval to expose the status in the app?
Possible but would be complex
Thx Reza. it is excellent. Kindly let me know how do you ensure that users will not access to the backside SharePoint list as this could jeopardize the Apps flow process ?
Welcome!
I have done a video on item level security with flow. Use that in combination with this to secure the item
@@RezaDorrani thx
Reza, thank you very much for your videos. I am learning a lot and getting several ideas for an employee evaluation app I'm working on.
A specific question for this demonstration. Is there a way for the user to perform the approval action directly on the screen with the event information? I assume it would be a button OnSelect, but I do not know what action it would do to reference the official approval function. Any suggestions? Thanks again for your videos.
Most welcome!
This technique uses power automate approvals and that requires user to approve/reject in flow.
If you want specific to app then check ua-cam.com/video/Om4beefKmV0/v-deo.htmlsi=WxsXZ7OkYgh9-oRC
Hello Reza, as you introduced, the sequencial approval is being introduced to power automate, could you refurbish your this video with new feature of sequence approval, i believe that would be more straightforward to construct flow comparing to this approach❤
You have both the videos as references. Give a try.
I have no plans for a follow up video on this.
Very nice.
Thank you! Cheers!
This is awesome! Is there a way to do parallel approvals instead of in sequence?
Welcome!
Should be possible but not something I have tried
@@RezaDorrani I'll try it and let you know!
Amazing video, thank you very much!!
I have one question, is there a reason why my people column fields in the PowerApps table appear blank instead of the Claims name?
Thanks!
I showed the steps in the video for person column.
I am using latest authoring version of app. May be thats why. Please note that the table control is currently in preview. You can always leverage a gallery control to show the same data.
This is a great session.
Now, what happens if a person, say the first approver, forwards the approval request email to another person who was not in the approval list? Will that person be able to click and approve, because it doesn't look like there is a session check when you click that button - which is dangerous for Pharma Industry, where the e-signature is legally binding
There is an option in approval action to not allow re-assignment
Excellent video @Reza, have been learning a lot with you. Quick question, I don’t want a sequential approval, I want to send all the approvers at the same time. Would it be the same approach just changing the „start and wait approval“ mode? Thanks in advance
That would be even easier. Simply change mode of approval and assign task to all approvers in one go
@@RezaDorrani Thanks for the quick reply. Would it be possible to keep exact the same structure that you have in your video? I tried to adapt it, however not successful. I wanted to updated the status of each individual answer as soon as there is an answer from the approver.
thanks a lot
@@renmui As far as I know, there is no direct feature (in approvals) that gives you a live update of a response for a scenario which assigns task to multiple approvers in one go. You may want to check on forums in case someone has done something similar powerusers.microsoft.com/

Hi Reza,
I hope you're doing well. Thank you for sharing this video. I was wondering if you could help me understand if we can implement a document approval process using Microsoft apps. Specifically, I'm interested in knowing if we can ensure that the document is protected from editing once a single member has approved it. Additionally, I'm curious if we can create a restricted access repository on SharePoint for the approved document.
I have done several approval based videos (all placed in a playlist on my channel)
Mainly I have done list related approvals but same concept applies for documents.
You can also set item permissions to make the item/file read only.
Reza, I have a very similar use case but I have one selectable approver (who will be first in the approval chain), but I also have three SET approvers that will follow in a predetermined order. What's the best way to handle this? help! Love the video, this is a perfect solution for me.
Check my playlist on approvals. You can always determine predefined approvers or dynamic approvers.
Thanks! I’ll check it out. And I’ve subscribed, appreciate what you do here.
@@RezaDorrani do you have a particular video where you cover this? I'm so sorry, I'm struggling to find what I'm looking for. Basically I want to have the "approvers" field exactly like in here, except formatted identical to the Assigned to. Then, the Approvers card is populated with the entry from the "Business GM" field, followed by three predefined individuals. thank you again!
@@dakralter4957I dont have a specific video on your ask but I have done various types of approval videos. You would need to combine logic from multiple videos.
Great Video Reza, learning a lot from your videos. A question, if I don't want the user to pick approvers and instead have pre-defined approvers. How can that be approached for Approvers field?
Set approvers in the flow then. I have done several approval videos that has pre-defined approvers.
@@RezaDorrani Yes, that is the workaround, have done it that way. I was just wondering if in some way, it could be pre-populated in the form itself. Thanks for your response.
@@IlaChauhan-hx2sq Its possible for sure but not something I have tried

Hello Reza! Thank you for the highly educational content!
My question is this: Is an approval flow necessary or preferred for specific reasons? Why do we not just bake this logic in the Power App (with deep linking etc.)?
Welcome!
Flow approvals come with actionable messaging in email, teams and more will come in future.
Deep linking and handling in apps is an option as well.
Its a choice that you can make based on what works best for you.
@@RezaDorrani Thanks for taking the time!!! I was wondering because the approval-flow implementation is easier to do in a "linear" way, however once you have split approval chains or conditionally added approvers it seems that it would get much more difficult to handle with a single flow. Once again thanks for everything!

In regarding to change the Default property of "Assigned To " datacard, I am wondering how can it be improved to have 2/ multiple value from different data fields/cards.

If(ApprovalForm1.Mode = FormMode.New, Table(First(personselectioncombobox.SelectedItems), First(personselectorcombobox2.SelectedItems)),
ThisItem.'Assigned To ')
