Hi All,

I am new to developing.   Am nearing completion of the Associate Application Developer Training (Free)

All has gone really well until now. 

I am in the latter part of the "Flow Fundamentals" course (8hr 8 Mins)

More precisely, I in the "Create a Flow (Yokohama)" On Demand Course.

I am in Lesson 13 - Activity 2: Add Flow Logic in the "Configure the Branch for P3 and P4 Records"

I am at Step 2.  Instruction says to set Approval Reason: "Manager approval required"

I have tried every way I know to find and enter this Approval Reason, to no avail.

I am at a loss as to how to proceed.  Any help appreciated

Hi @Community Alums 

Since you have tried everything, why not try to manually type Priority 1 or 2 needs approval for approval field, I think its a string field and no dot walking/ data pill is required in this case

Then Save the flow and then check.

@Community Alums Approval Reason is a string field, you simply type in the text you want to display as the approval reason. When it is provided in the course you can just copy and paste the text from the instructions if you want to make sure it matches exactly.
