Issue with unexpected cancellation of 'The Approval for which this request was issued has been canceled'

[Anonymous]

Hi All,

I'm wondering why below cancellation email has been generated even though user/approver did not do anything.

That approval has been delaying 2 month but i have no clue any logic involved automate cancellation on power automate function on it.

Please help me to find cause.

Limit for Approval time out step is 30 days

Please check this article if you need to develop something that overrides this problem which means start another approval after timeout of the first approval

Please also check the below article for Limits and configurations:

Then is there any possible to extend timeout period instead of 30days?

I do not believe so because it is stated explicitly that the maximum is 30 days.
