Hello,
It is not possible to have a single approval flow for all the documents (but you can make it feel like it).
You would need to create a Power Automate for each document library. Each flow should take necessary document metadata and put it in a SharePoint list. That SharePoint list should then have a trigger to send item for approval. If approved, you will have metadata to target the right item in the right document library. Finally, approving it.

Thanks, but not sure about that.
I think it is possible to subscribe to webhooks for all websites and use this subscription to trigger det approval, but I hoped it was easier solution in 2024...
