Dape, 

Ahh okay, approver field is referenced from User table and you are trying to insert approver from Contact[customer_contact] table. Do you think this might be the reason?

Hi,

your lookup record action is on which table?

I believe it will accept either user or group record since approval require either user/group record.

If your Contact record has a field which stores User record or Group record then you can select that via dot walk and it should work

If my answer solved your issue, please mark my answer as Correct & 👍Helpful based on the Impact.
