Hi Adam,

 

I had communicated with the flow power community as you suggested.

They suggested to check the status and restrict to call, before the Start an Approval action.

The details url of discussion

I guess the suggestion is the way around, but there will be always a new instances will be created for each and every created or modified items, which are Pending or Draft state.

I need to understand why every time the flow is creating a new instances if the item is in Pending or Draft state.

Appreciate your help for the same. Is it the built in behavior of the Action or I made a mistake?

 

Thanks and Regards

Asesh
