Request By shows by creator and not person who requested

I have created a leave request flow in PowerAutomate. 

Employees fill out a form (on Microsoft Forms) and this gets sent to the department manager to approve and then to the Managing Director to finalise approval. 

 

For some reason, in Teams, it is showing that it was requested by me (as I created the flow) and not the person requesting the leave. 

 

Is there a way I can change this?

      andrewb1795 Hi, kind of but not really. I found some work arounds but in same places it is still showing requested by me. You're welcome to email me if you'd like to know the things that I did do.

        nc1999 Microsoft have been aware of this issue for some years and that it causes confusion for users. Unfortunately they haven't done anything about it.
