Group Approval of Knowledge Article using OOB workflow

Community Alums

I'm developing one project using the knowledge table and I want to use the default workflow for Knowledge Approval. To approve any articles, the approvers are picked up from the knowledge base managers & owner. But, these both fields are user fields.

Do we have any way to get the approval from any group? I know I can do this by using my own workflow but I just wanted to check do we have any functionality provided by ServiceNow for group approval in Knowledge with less customization?

This may trigger the approval to the ownership group. 

 

Alternatively, you can create a group on the knowledgebase table and create a workflow to follow the approval through the group/manager with an approval co-ordinator.

Hi Swadesh,

Thanks for the quick response, I went through the article and it serves the purpose.

I'll recommend to go through the OOB approach rather than creating a new workflow.
