Hide "Created By" from Flow Approval e-mail


When the Flow Approval is generated, an automatic email sent to approver contains two variables: Requested for and Created By. Requested for is a person that requires the approval. Created by is a person that designed the flow and this variable should be hidden (not visible to the approver). Is there any possibility to achieve that?

Solution

  • The "Requested for" field in the email is mapped to the "Requestor" field in the Approval action. It can be edited but it cannot be empty.

    I cannot find the source for the "Created by" field in the email. Initially I thought it was the owner of the Approval connection, but that is not the case.

    I know this is a partial answer, but I thought it might save you some effort.
