Announcing SharePoint page approvals
I would like to understand how this works with the Common Data Service. My tenancy was created after the March update to the Common Data Service. This means that I cannot create a Common Data Service against the default environment. When I try to create any Flow in the default environment that uses the approval connector I am told that a Common Data Service does not exist and so the Approval cannot run. With this being the case if I create a new environment and Common Data Service (I need PowerApps Plan 2 do this) I can create approvals in that environments. So here is the questions when creating the "SharePoint Approval" Workflow it always goes into the default environment and will not work as there is no Common Data Service there what do I do to allow it to work? My tenancy, Azure AD and Environments are all in the UK.

While I try to get some insights on this, can you please try just creating a flow by going to the Flow website and use approvals? Though SharePoint is creating the flow, it is not doing anything special and uses the generic Flow approvals.

It appears to ba UK problem:

When I try to create a Common Data Service Database in the default environment I get:
Looking at this thread It appears as a UK problem thus we will not be able to use Page Approval if we have a tenancy created after March. Which is a real shame that we are excluded from the functionality
