I'm sending approvals via email in a Microsoft Flow. And I need to solve a task: how to send more than one approval all in one email (daily).
Does anyone know how to do that?
MS Flow (Power Automate) Approval connector which sends an actionable email to Approver is meant for single record processing and not for digest of requests.
We can store all the Approval requests in a list and send out an email by iterating through them every 24 hours (daily), or listing the Approval requests in email body and having “Approve All”, “Reject All”, “No Action” as responses to take action on them.
Based on the response, you can take action on items list. Read more
The best thing would be using mobile app to see the list of push notifications & approve them. Solve the problem by user training.

In Azure Logic Apps, there is an action for Send Approval Email under Office 365 Outlook.
I want to have multiple approval options in the same email. Is there a way to do it?
I tried looping over and sending emails but that sends a new email every time with option to approve.
Currently, this is not possible in logic apps. You can send only 1 approval from logic apps. However, if it is must to use an approval connector you can build a logic app where you can send multiple emails and track the options through Storage account or you can simply use a send email connector and get the replies from users. Below is an alternative approach if it is must to use an approval connector from logic apps.
I have used parallel branches to set a time for the responding by the user. If the user fails to select the options within the time limit the logic app fails. In my case I have used 1 minute. However you can even set time using Delay until and mention the specific date and time to respond back.
In the parallel step I'm sending the Approval email to the user and then I'm storing all the Lists of the blobs in storage account into a variable.
Note: This results to trigger multiple emails to the users
In the next step, I'm checking if the user's options has already been created by checking their mail id. If yes, it just stores the selected option by the user else it creates the file and then stores the selected options by the user.
RESULTS:
In mail
In LogicApps Run
In storage account
Yes, you can have multiple approval in the To configuration with multiple email ID's separated by semicolons of the Send approval email action of the office 365 connector.
Once it is approved you can get the email ID of the person who has approved the request using the property UserEmailAddress and other details of the output of your Send approval email connector.
Need help to understand the Kentico email notification flow on check-out process.
I used the PaymantForm webpart, on click of "Paynow" button, order confirmation email sent to customer before the payment step completes.
How to restrict this and how to send the order confirmation mail only after the payment is done.
Payment Gateway: Paypal
Kentico Version: 10
Please suggest.
Thanks,

This email you're talking about is simply stating the order was created, no completed. You can look into the E-commerce module and check out the overall e-commerce settings. In there you can define your order statuses. With each order status, you can define if an email is sent or not. I'd suggest starting there.
I have a client that would like to send out batches of contracts for signatures (hundreds at a time). They would also like to use email for the recipients to log into docusign and sign. Only problem is that many of the recipients on these docs are the same couple of people, and thus, would end up with a flooded inbox after every contract batch.
Does DocuSign have a different email correspondence option? Maybe one that would send out 1 email if recipients have documents they need to take action on? This would be something that we need to control when creating and sending the envelopes because many of these users would be logging in for the first time when they sign their first document, and probably wouldn't know how to configure their settings appropriately.
Whenever an envelope is sent, the recipient will receive an email notification from Docusign. Sender will not be able to disable these notifications to the recipient.
Recipients can control the notifications they receive using the Manage Notifications page
How do I schedule a task to generate a weekly report in ServiceNow and send as an email.
I want the same report to be sent to my SharePoint site automatically every week. How to integrate it ? Please help.
You should be able to setup Incoming email on a Document Library in SharePoint and email a scheduled report to it from ServiceNow.
This also depends on ServiceNow being able to send email to this address.
You may need ServiceNow to have a VPN to your network with SharePoint, and you need Incoming email to be configured on your SharePoint install.
If those are working, you can do something like the following.
SharePoint
Create a Document Library
Go to Library Settings
Open Incoming E-Mail Settings
Change Allow this document library to receive e-mail? to Yes
Give this an E-mail address: reports#mysharepoint.com
SharePoint Security
Consider how ServiceNow is sending email to you. If email is sent via their mail servers, you may need to set incoming email option
E-mail security policy to Accept e-mail messages from any sender
In this case, be mindful of what email can be delivered to your network. This may allow unwanted emails coming in.
If ServiceNow uses your mail servers, you may be able to grant access to the Document Library for the user that is delivering your email. If so you may be able to set this
E-mail security policy to Accept e-mail messages based on document library permissions
This is much more secure, but these things always depend on your environment and your needs.
ServiceNow
Go to Reports > View / Run
Open the report to be delivered
Click the dropdown on the Save button
Choose Schedule
Fill out the Schedule form
Click the Users lock
In Enter email address put in the email to send to the Document Library (ex: reports#mysharepoint.com)
Run: Weekly
Choose the Day of the week and the Time
Subject: My report
Right click the header and choose Save
Test this by clicking Execute Now within the Scheduled Report
In my sharepoint site I have a document library with a workflow attached to it.Once any user upload a new document workflow is started and the document is send to approver for approval along with this an email has been sent to the approver for new document pending for approval. Now then email is sent from the mail server I have configured in sharepoint. it works fine. Now my question is I want to send the email to the approver from users email ID so that the approver should know from whome the request is come from.
Can any one help me how can I configure mail server so that the outgoing emailing should be done from users email ID.

You will need to set up a custom workflow with a custom activity to send the email rather than using the out of box approval workflow. This is one of those cases where a small change from the normal SharePoint way of doing things means a lot of extra work - the sort of problem I usually solve by telling the client it can't be done or is very expensive.
As an alternative, just including the requesting user name in the body of the email would be a lot easier and may be close enough to meeting the actual requirement.
You have write an event handler for the document library. You will have to send the approval mail using this event handler instead of thw workflow.
This post has some info abut event handlers in MOSS 2007
