Hi, hoping someone can help, I can't get an approval task to generate.
I have 1 task that generates with a variable for the approver to be entered.
When that task is closed (and approver entered), then the Ask for Approval kicks off. Everything is working up to this point but the approval piece never generates.
Initially, the task and RITM would just close. I added line 7 - wait for condition to wait for the approval to be either approved or rejected so now execution just shows it waiting on that step. What do I need to do to get the approval task to generate? Screenshots in comments.

Hi, Your post, might have been answered a while ago, but if you haven't received an answer, I hope this helps. If I am following your flow, you ask "if the task1 is closed" and if so [response is yes] you update the RITM and then ask for approval. Your logic stops there. However, when you ask "if task1 is closed" and if not [repsonse is no], then you are waiting for a condition [approval is approved] which will never happen. You might consider moving the wait under the ask for approval or creating an approval subflow w/inputs and outputs
