I made a work around. I update a field in the Sharepoint list when the item get approved as "approved".
I created a recurrence flow to get all items once in a week, check for this field, if that field doesnt contain "approved", it sends a reminder email. If that field contains "approved" does nothing.
"I created a recurrence flow to get all items once in a week, check for this field, if that field doesnt contain "approved", it sends a reminder email. If that field contains "approved" does nothing.
Hope it helps."
My Question however is if the manager doesn't approve for a few weeks or days do you end up with multiple running flows? When they do actaully approve one of them do the rest stop running?
This would be super useful to resend the approval task at a set reminder interval. This works when building out workflows in SharePoint Designer, but since flow is supposed to replace SP Designer, it seems like a major miss not to have a resend/remind option build into the approval step. My workflow is too complicated to do any of the work around options I have found, so I am left with no way to use Flow to build my workflow since the reminder is extremely important to our process.
