Building Approvals with Microsoft Flow: Advanced Features

  • Details
  • Resources
Automating business processes used to approve things has always been one of the most common business processes. The introduction of the Approvals actions in Microsoft Flow has simplified the process of creating such workflows. In this talk we’ll go beyond the process of building simple approval flows and look at advanced techniques that can be used to take them to the next level. We’ll demonstrate solutions for the following:
  • Building Approval workflows with custom responses without requiring premium licensing
  • Applying custom formatting to the approval email
  • Recording approval results and comments
  • Forwarding an approval if the approver is out of the office
  • Escalating an approval that hasn’t been responded to
  • Sending periodic reminders about pending approvals
  • Building an approval workflow for an adjustable list of approvers
