How to call a System Property for Approval Group from Flow Designer?

Hi,

I have created a Flow Designer, and in this flow, I have added an action called Ask for Approval. In the approval action, I need to add an approval group. Currently, the approval group is configured manually, but I want to dynamically pull the approval group from a system property.

How can I reference and use a system property in Flow Designer?

@Hari S1 

you can use Lookup Record on Group table with sysid == Property value

then output of this can be used in Ask for Approval

OR

create a flow variable of type String and use Set Flow Variable logic and set the flow variable with this property sysId

Then use this flow variable via data pill in Ask for Approval action

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.
