Parallel Group Approvals from List Collector in Flow Designer Not Working

[LokeshwarRV]

Hi everyone,

I'm working on a Service Catalog flow in Flow Designer triggered by a Requested Item (sc_req_item). Here i want to get the parallel approavls from the approval groups .I have a List Collector variable called related_services that stores multiple related services (cmdb_ci_service records). Each service has a reference to an approval group in the change_control field.

In my flow, I use a script to collect all the approval group sys_ids from the related services and pass them to the "Ask for Approval" action. Here's the script I'm using:

iam using  a flow variable name ApprovalList with script

var groups = [];

var relatedLists = fd_data._1__get_catalog_variables.related_services;

var serviceGr = new GlideRecord('cmdb_ci_service');

serviceGr.addQuery('sys_id', 'IN', relatedLists);

serviceGr.query();

while (serviceGr.next()) {

    var groupId = serviceGr.getValue('change_control'); // Get sys_id as string

    if (groups.indexOf(groupId) < 0) {

        groups.push(groupId);

    }

}

return groups;

and in Ask for Approval i am setting this

and i my flow execution i am getting as approval as skipped
Note:Here i want to sent the approval to approval groups parallel

Help me to overcome this issue
Thanks in Advance
