thanks @Dr Atul G- LNG  as always

 

I went to Notification "Approval Request" and saw that it is using email template "change.itil.approve.role".  Please see both the screenshots. 

 

When I checked the email template I see below which I believe is adding the "Click Here to Approve CHXXXXXXX"

 

${mailto:mailto.approval}
 
${mailto:mailto.rejection}
 
Can you suggest how can I change this to  "Click Here to Approval CHXXXXXX by email"

Hi @hanwar2 

 

I'm not a developer, but here are my thoughts:

From what I understand, you want the user to be able to approve or reject the request/change via email."
