This sample demonstrates the following concepts:
- Creating an approval
- Sending reminders for the approval via Teams adaptive cards
Before you can use this sample flow, you'll need to create a SharePoint library with the following custom columns:
| Name | Type | Required |
|---|---|---|
| ApprovalID | Single line of text | No |
| ApprovalCard | Multiple lines of text | No |
| Status | Choice | Yes |
The library will look similar to this. Note that the ApprovalID and ApprovalCard fields don't have to be present on the view:
