Hi, @MohamedYunoosSahulHameed-7162 ,

Would you like to share more information about your content approval flow?

Some users unable to approve a document because content approval it keep on processing in Power Automate but not approving

What do you mean by the content approval is keep on processing? By default after the flow is triggered, the approver set in the flow will receive Email and notification in flow for approval. Does any issue occur in this part? If possible, please provide a screenshot how the flow "keep on processing". And if we can know to the structure of the content approval flow, it will help us to re-build a similar one in my end and test.

Once Approver approves the document through email. Then flow will go to yes section and following step will happen. Final "Set Content Approval Status 2" few uses are getting keep on processing(Yellow color) symbol while debugging. So the document is still in "Pending" status.

@MMohammadYunoos-3979 ,

For the structure it seems to be fine. Where does the dynamic content ID come from? Does it work without ETag?

Content ID = Document ID and without ETag is not working.

Error message for ETag: "Message":"The ETag of this item does not match the one used for setting content approval status. The contents of the item may have changed before the action was completed.",
