Approval action in Flow designer is not adding the approver to RITM

[Arpit Nigam]

I have created an Action for General Manager approval and its returning the SYS ID of the approver. Now I have added this action to the flow designer, but when I am submitting the catalogue request the general manager approval is not getting attached. Refer attached Snapshots.

Hi @Arpit Nigam 

I could see that you are calling a Script Include in your action. Is the Script Include responsible for creating the approval ?

Also, in the flow, the input you are passing to your action, please ensure that you are passing a reference record to user table only, not the sys_id directly.

Thanks and Regards

Yes, Amit that's right. Script include is fetching the general manager approver details. What changes I need to do to ensure that I am  passing a reference record to user table only, not the sys_id directly ?

Probably, you can change the data type of your action variable user to string instead of Reference to User table. In the flow, you can then pass the sys_id of the user directly by dot-walking to affected users catalog variable and selecting sys_id.

Tried the same @vermaamit16 , but No luck. Still same issue.
