Sharepoint - Get content approval status

[PetersonBriones]

When a set content approval status to Pending by using the submit action, I get this error when the file is already in pending status.

"message": "The current state of the item is Pending and the following action Submit cannot be implemented

I could avoid this by checking if the document is already in pending status before doing this action however there is no action to get the Approval Status of a document.

The possibility get content appproval status would be a big step forward for the approval workflows in Microsoft flow. Now it's hard to check if a document is already approved or not which can cause problems like:Multiple people approving the same document -> flow runs multiple times, difficult to send a daily overview of documents that need approval.

We need a way to check what the status of an approval is

Currently have a flow which checks for modifications to a folder, once there is a modification a approval request is triggered

However... when this document gets appended to be approved or rejected, it updates the file again, causing another approval trigger

I just need to add in a condition to check the current approval status. However there is no way to do this

I am looking for something similar... I am in need of a flow that allows multiple people to be notified of a document update.. 

(Example)

User A adds a item to a spread sheet.

The flow then sends and approval to User B.

User B adds spec info to item User A added to the spread sheet

The flow then sends aditional approval to User C who finalizes the the item setup and then notifies User B it is complete..

need to send email notification after the doucment is manually aproved. since Approval Status field cannot be pulled, cannot use MS Flow

I am looking for this in Logic Apps as well.

The action Set Approval Content Status is available, but the Get ... action isn't...

Very critical
