How to Send Automatic Approval Reminders in Power Automate
Learn how to build two Power Automate flows that work together to keep your approvals moving. The first flow triggers when someone submits a Microsoft Forms form, creates a SharePoint item with the form data, sets the Approval Status to Pending Approval, and sends an approval request. The second flow runs on a schedule you choose, checks for any items still sitting at Pending Approval, and sends a reminder email straight to your inbox — no manual chasing required.
