Hi @shaliniverma,

I have made a test on my side and find that there is no any way to send an request to a sharepoint group with "Start an approval" action currently.

We would send an email to the sharepoint group, then members in the group would receive the email.

However, we couldn't send the request to a sharepoint group with "Start an approval" action.

The function to send the request to a sharepoint group with "Start an approval" action is not supported in microsoft flow currently,if you would like the function to be supported in microsoft flow, you could consider submitting an idea to flow idea forum:
