Assigment group as an approver for Ask for Approval group

I made a flow that calls a subflow that assigns a Group to the assignment group.

Next the flow continues and Ask for approval Action using the Assignment group.

The members of  the Groups that is assigned on the Assignment group (I am using an extented table from the task table to manage the requests from a record producer) should appear as approvers on the approval portal of a workspace.

But the approval portal appears empty.

When I run a Test on the flow with the same record, the approvers appear on the approval portal.

Empty portal

 

And this image is after refreshing the screen with exact same portal with the same record, but after running the Test Flow.

It worked with a "Wait time"  instead a "Wait for condition", my theory is that the subflow somehow returns a data before assigning the final value, and the condition was met before it was assigned.

Hi @GustavoE ,

 

  • Add a "Wait for Condition" step after assigning the group
  • Wait until Assignment Group is not empty
  • Then proceed with the Ask for Approval step.



Please mark my answer as helpful/correct if it resolves your query.

Thank you SD_Chandan, I put the "Wait for condition" with condition Assigment Group not empty, but approvers are still not assigned.

Other issue, is that I had to put another "Wait for condition" after the "Ask for approval" with the conditions  "approval is approved or approal is rejected", because it did not wait for the Approval to change to continue to the next step.
