Approval Reminders
Nudge approvers automatically about requests still waiting on them — on a cadence you choose, until they act or the flow stops chasing.
Updated
Approval Reminders emails approvers who still have a pending decision, on a recurring schedule, until they act or the schedule runs out. It's configured per flow by an Administrator and is off by default, so each flow you want chased has to be switched on individually. Use it when requests stall because approvers forget rather than because they object. You'll need a flow already set up and its settings open.
Who this is for: admin.
Turn on automatic reminders and set the schedule
When a request sits untouched, the schedule you set here decides how often ApproveThis nudges the pending approver by email — so you stop chasing people manually. The choices are bounded: reminders go out daily, every 3 days, or weekly, up to 10 reminders total, with a cutoff between 7 and 90 days after which nothing more is sent.
