Approval Status Column Formatting - gone!
- Apr 01, 2019
Tanya Denton . We faced the same issue the same day, it seems that Microsoft have removed that option. I managed to remove JSON format by going to hidden field in this way: https://sbseguros.sharepoint.com/sites/facturacion/_layouts/15/FldEdit.aspx?List=%7B84A2577F-043C-4821-B9DC-2B7F871A6EA6%7D&Field=_ModerationStatus
You can go to another field's settings of the same list and replace that field name for "_ModerationStatus" in the url.
nz_archer - exactly the same for me

escipionFormat in the column status Works great with you suggestion. However, the option export to Excel is not available now. It was an error when we try to get Excel sheet. It is not possible get conection with SharePoint list. Do you know something about that? - Maggan WåhlinApr 04, 2019Iron Contributor
escipion Awesome, thank you! Looks better now even though the col is empty... Hoping MSFT releases a fix shortly.

Microsoft
Thanks all your feedback. We are going to bring back this feature very soon. Hoping it should be available ~3 to 4 weeks time however we don't have exact ETA- Charles PritchardApr 08, 2019Copper ContributorHi, I can confirm that _ModerationStatus has broken rendering on all First Release and Standard Release tenancies. This is a breaking change for all of our users who use a modern view for approvals. Complete work stoppage for some; 3 - 4 weeks is out of the question for a fix.
This would be fine if it was just JSON Column Formatting but is broken for default rendering now also.
