I think recent update from Microsoft is for Approval App. It means you can take approval directly from MS Teams using this app. Also it will provide you the details of any approval actions you are using anywhere in Power Automate (Flows).

let me know if you have any questions further on this.

Thanks for the clarification. When getting started with Approvals in Flow, I assumed the mechanism would work via email but it only works in Teams. The only way I know to add the action of "sending an email" is to actually add the action. I am using the "Start an approval in Teams when a file is added to a SharePoint folder" template.
