Need help with sharepoint flow to get attchements in mail
Hi Abhijit12641
In addition to Doug Allen's suggestion, you could also try using Send email with options which allows you to specify the user options to choose from (e.g. Approve/Deny, Yes/No, etc). You can also attach files to the email and apply formatting.
I use both the formal Approvals function and the Send email with options depending on how much flexibility I need in what I'm creating.
Hope that helps!
Cheers

Damien_Rosario Thanks a lot for detailed explanation. I will try this also in new flow.
Unfortunately the approval flow I am creating has 6 levels of approvals and flow logic does not allow me to add more than 8 levels. I have to find a different way to approach this. Is there any looping solution as possible with flow. For example, every time a next level of approval is needed flow can go back to loop and then once response is received it will come to last step and then work as per the response received.

Hi Abhijit12641
Sounds like a complex approval flow you have there.
Questions:
1. Is it possible to group some of the approvers together? Approvals allows you to have all Approvers to respond in order for the approval to be accepted.
2. Can you please explain how you have several levels of approvals? The diagram shows two although I get were you are going with it.
It's possible to loop but will need to understand what you are looking to achieve business wise to be able to guide you.
Hope you are well!
Cheers

Each approval step can have multiple approvers. So approval 1 action can have 5 approvers, approval 2 can have 3, etc.
