Hi @madhu25 
This behavior is expected. Currently, Now Assist for Flow Designer cannot reliably create or modify complex conditional logic within an existing “Ask for Approval” action. The Ask for Approval action is declarative by design, while decision‑making logic must be handled outside the action using Flow Designer elements.

Instead of placing logic inside Ask for Approval, use the following approach:

Use an IF condition before the Ask for Approval action

Recommended Now Assist prompt:

Create a flow where an approval is requested only when the request priority is High.
If the priority is not High, skip the approval step and continue the flow.

This will generate:

  • An IF condition that evaluates the priority
  • The Ask for Approval action placed only in the “true” branch

This is the supported and best‑practice approach when working with conditional approvals in Flow Designer.
